DIY SWEATPANTS with pockets & elastic waistband with drawstring // sewing tutorial
Hey guys, it is me again with another sewing project! In this video I will be showing you how I make my oversized straight leg sweatpants / joggers with side pockets and a drawstring elastic waistband! Just in time for Fall / Winter.. if you are like me, then you live in sweats so let's make our own perfect pair!
For the pattern, I cloned a pair of joggers I already owned, adjusted the fit to fit me better, I will be doing a video on how I clone my own clothes. I also plan on making a video of how to draft your own joggers also!! Do not forget to subscribe so you do not miss out on more videos like this!
I used a medium weight sweatshirt fleece & braided cord from a local fabric store
1.5 inch width elastic from Fabricland

girl yes I read all my comments! I was so happy you asked haha as it was my next video coming up hehe!!
Finally got a sewing machine, and one of the first things I wanna make is a comfy winter skirt, with sweatpants waistband and drawstrings
Thank you for this tutorial!!! I work out in skirts and absolutely REFUSE to pay $70 for a skirt that goes to my mid calf. Thank you so much!!!
Gosh, she zoomed through this. I have so so many questions. This was amazing!
I had some issues with my own way of making a waistband, and seeing how u do it, helped me figure-out a different (Better way) , thank you Cassie!
Thanks for the clear explanation on the waistband, it helped me realize that a skirt I thought I messed up on, can still be corrected, because I should have done the waistband separate.

Such a great job and looks like it will last you a while! How much was the joggers in total?
Wow amazing. I didn’t understand the waistband part about the length. Could you please explain. Was it as wide as the top of the pants
Amazing!!!! I’m so excited to make these. Not sure if I missed it but what is a good place to buy sweatpants material. Also do you have a video of what supplies to buy as first timer to make my first price? So far I have a seeing maxhine

I usually buy my sweatpant fabrics from a local store in Toronto - affordable textiles. It’s been my fav for quality so far , I do see a lot on Etsy just haven’t purchased it from there just yet!😊. And not right now but that is definitely on my to do list for videos for sure ! 🥰
Please do tutorial on the pattern making
Really helpful video and lots of great tips - but I wanted to ask how you managed the sewing around the pocket joint when sewing the side seam? I saw you sew the pocket bag down to fix in place so it looked neat, but how then did you sew the side seams without leaving a hole where the pocket bag was fixed? In the past I’ve seen videos where the side seam tracks around the pocket bag area as one overall stitching line, so you’ve no holes where the pocket meets the side seam. However, this doesn’t hold down the pocket bag, so I like your idea. I’m just not sure how to hide the side seam sewing when it meets the pocket top and bottom.
Can you do a tutorial on invisible zippers

How much smaller is the elastic compared to the waistband?
Hi.. could you please list the proportions of sweatpants waist to waistband length to elastic length? That'd be super helpful ☺️☺️ is the waistband length longer than the actual waist size and then the elastic length is close to waistsize?
May I ask where you found this fabric? I do not seem to have this in my area and I have even looked online....with no success or with terribly overpriced material. Thankyou

Wait , how do i know the stencil design of the pants? I really want to try this.
