My Sewing Journey
Greenstyle Creations has done it again! Another great legging pattern has been released and I was so excited to test these. The Sundial Leggings are a quick sew with no side seams or pockets.

Waffle knit is all the rage this season. Bow Button Fabrics has a great variety and their waffle knit is very soft with 4 way stretch.
