So, I made these leggings:

from Kwik-Sew 3455.

These were a snap to make, and I think I will do another pair. These are a tiny bit too big, and I think I’ll increase the seam allowance and trim when I am done.

These are swimsuit fabric, and I have some swimsuit fabric that looks like the American Apparel “small dots”, but black instead of silver. The fabric cost $10 and they want $42 for them, so I figure I’m ahead there.

I totally blew off a pattern review contest for August. I really *meant* to do it, but I got very busy with work, we did a bunch of house maintenance and I kind of lost the muse. When I’m in the mood, I’m very productive with sewing, but if I’m not, I get nothing done.

I’m going on a backpacking trip next week so I’m mostly preparing for that. I’m not sure when I’ll get back to producing clothes, but it will almost certainly be a couple of weeks.
