Fold a pair of leggings (that fit!) in half and lay them on the fold of a stretchy knit fabric. Cut around them as pictured and then trace that piece onto another fabric for your second leg.
Fold each leg piece over itself with the right sides facing each other. Pin just up to the pointy part and sew.
Pin the tops together with the crotch seams matching up. Sew, leaving the top open.
Fold over the top edge...
Then fold it over your elastic and pin casing in place.
Sew close to the edge, stretching the fabric as you go, leaving a 1'' hole to insert your elastic. Overlap the ends of elastic 1/2'' and zigzag together. Tuck into the casing and sew the hole closed.
Then you just need to hem up your little leggies. Again, be sure to stretch the fabric as you sew if you use a straight stitch. Or you can use a zigzag. If you have a double needle, now would be a great time to use it, too!
