Leggings For Anna

I love a baby girl in a dress, and after having 7 daughters, I have a lot to choose from!
But I hate messing with baby tights! And while Babylegs are adorable, I don't like trying to keep them up either!
 So, to solve this problem, I made Anna some leggings!
I used this pattern and then made some changes. Not only did I cut them longer, but also wider by placing the pattern about an inch from the fold. Then I folded up the foot portion of the pattern to make leggings instead of tights.
 I decided to ruffle the bottom edge by pulling the fabric super tight while running a close zig-zag stitch at the edge of the fabric. I stitched around each twice. This leaves a nice girly look!
I also added a gusset to help make enough room for my daughter's cloth diapered heinie!
They fit great,
 and keep her covered and warm!
 That makes us both happy!

  1. It comes out that the latest fashion trends are simply have nothing new at all. Almost everything re-emerged in fashion trend. You can virtually find torn jeans in every clothing retail store.
