VIDEO – Handmade Joggers Four Patterns Reviewed

I've always had a strong appreciation for comfortable clothing and during the last couple of years, that has only increased. Spending my days at home, my go-to garment is a pair of joggers or lounge pants. I'll occasionally wear leggings but my first choice is always the joggers. I realized recently that I've sewn joggers from four different patterns so I thought it would be fun to share all of them in today's post and do a little compare and contrast.

Will you take our survey?

Hello friends! I’m slowly (very slowly) planning what content and patterns I’m going to work on this year and I’d love to get your input. If you’re up for it, I have a very short (only 7 questions!) survey that you can fill out by clicking here. This is an anonymous survey, meaning it does not record your name, email or any other personal information. The survey is a google form and the results are saved to my personal google account.

I may share the results of the survey on the blog but in the interest of privacy, I won’t share any write-in answers. The survey went live last week and the results are pretty interesting and very helpful. If you’ve already filled it out, thank you so much!
