Foxy Legs | Jogger Pants Sewing Pattern

A good pattern

I have just made two pairs of foxy legs, one in a cotton spandex the other in a slight looped back stretch (both within the stretch guide). The instructions were good, if one was a beginner sewer then they would be very helpful with all the information provided, as an advanced sewer I glanced at various steps for clarification. I did make a pattern modification for my second pair. I didn't like the stitching down of the pocket, so drafted an inner bag for it based on the pocket opening I had chosen, I used a very light stretch fabric for the inner bag. I think in the instructions, when I read them there needed to be the size of the curved pocket binding included at that section too, not earlier on. I changed how the binding was sewn on, on both pairs to avoid any visible overlocking seam at the binding edges inside. I made them for my child so will have some modifications for fit to make in the future. Things that will be an easy modification as they grow taller will be to replace the leg binding with a longer one. I think with the design of these pants that will be a modification for size that will not change the design of the pants and how they sit.

Foxy legs

They are perfect for my needs. I made them out of navy Lycra and can't wait to make another pair.

Made several pairs now

These can be either lounge pants or dressy depending on fabric and accessories. I wear some on my bike commute, including the knee length in summer. A firm favourite.
