patch leggings. diy...

hey again! a while back my beautiful sister in-law had the genius idea to make her own knee patch leggings (see hers here)...and today I did my very own! 
Its such a cool idea to transform normal black leggings into a funky part of any outfit. The sis chose to do Black velvet heart patches witch look soo cool and I decided on felt daisy patches! 
                             enjoy...

you will need.

*leggings

*scrap material ( I am using felt)

*card for a template

*thread ( I am using yellow)

*needle

*scissors

First use the template to cut out the desired shape

on the fabric your using

*Then try on your leggings and measure up where you want your patch to sit.

I pinned my patch whilst I had the leggings on

(BE CAREFUL YOU DONT PIN YOUR LEG!)

*Take off the legging and sew on your patch using the needle and thread

*Reapeat for other leg.

Here are my FAB knee patch leggings!!

and I LOVE them!

you could try different shapes like hearts, stars or crosses

and obviously you can use any fabric!

This is so easy if you are handy with a needle! it took me about 25 minutes to complete!

I think I might try floral or leather hearts next. 

what do you think?
