Woman from 32 up to 52
Two sewing patterns for woman
2 shapes: leggings for very stretchy materials (such as jersey or stretch rib) or jegging for medium stretchy materials (such as fleece or French terry with elastane)
3 lengths: long, 3/4 or short. No side seams
Ankle bands or hems depending on length
Waistband with inserted elastic or fancy elastic as a waistband
2 patterns for comfortable outfits, essential for the homewear or sports wardrobe.The leggings have finished measurements that are narrower than your body measurements in order to be form-fitting. The pattern is worked in negative ease; the fabric will relax well and fit the body.
The jegging has measurements very close to the body. The medium-stretch fabric used to make them will stretch slightly. The jegging will therefore be slightly tight and comfortable. The shape is somewhere between leggings and jogging trousers.
Skill level: easy and quick
The leggings/jegging is quick and easy to sew as it has only a few pieces. It is therefore a suitable project for a beginner.
What you will learn with these patterns: how to assemble an elastic as waistband or a band with inserted elastic, how to make ankle bands or double needle hems.
A video is available for free on the website.
Women size range: 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52 (French sizes)
This pattern is proposed from 32 to 52 for a stature of 165cm=65'' (nb: the 32 corresponding approximately to a 14 years for the young girls). It is recommended that you take your measurements and choose the most suitable pattern size. If you hesitate between 2 sizes, it is better to choose the size you take in the store. For example, I am a size 44 in the store and a size 44 in hips and chest according to the chart; but I am more like 86cm in waist. I made a 44 and it's perfect!
Leggings or jegging finished garment measurements: see in the pictures or here for Seattle & here for Seattle kids.

Fabrics :
- Leggings: very stretchy fabric. Jersey, rib, openwork, with elastane
- Jegging: medium stretch fabric. Fleece or French terry with elastane
- Caution: 100% cotton fabrics (without elastane), even stretchy, can poke at the knees when worn and will be uncomfortable
- Ribbing is recommended for the ankle band of long jeggings. Otherwise, make ankle bands in the main fabric.
Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Caring for your fabrics is essential to maintain their appearance and longevity. Here are some essential fabric care tips to make your clothing last longer and look great.
First and foremost, always check the care label on your garments. While most fabrics benefit from similar care, certain items like wool may have specific instructions. For general care, wash your fabrics in cool or cold water. Hot water can degrade fibers and cause colors to fade.
Avoid using chlorine bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric over time. Instead, choose a phosphate-free detergent. These gentle detergents clean effectively without harming your textiles.
When it comes to drying your clothes, it's best to tumble dry on a low setting. This helps prevent shrinking and unnecessary wear and tear. For the best results, dry similar colors together to avoid color transfer. If you want to maximize the longevity of your fabrics, consider line-drying your clothes. This method reduces the risk of damage from the dryer’s heat and can also save energy.
Ironing your fabrics? Always check the appropriate heat settings based on the type of fabric you are working with. Utilizing the right heat can help you avoid burns and preserve the integrity of your garments.
If you have any delicate items, laundering them in a mesh bag can provide extra protection during the wash cycle. Always be mindful of embellishments and finishes when caring for your fabrics.
Ultimately, proper fabric care ensures that your clothes continue to look fresh and new. By following these easy tips, you can enjoy your favorite garments for years to come.
