Remember how so many of you wanted to know how to make
Surprise!!!
I've put together a tutorial, but there's more. I have a source for the fabric over at Ruffled Fabric.com who is generously offering 2 winners 1 yard of their lovely ruffled goodness and 1 yard of matching colored elastic each! AND [I know, it just keeps getting better], for those who aren't one of the 2 winners, they are offering 10% off your order [use promotion code 10percent]!
Christmas in Joo-ly is right!
Supplies: Ruffled Fabric [1 yard] and elastic [1 to 1 1/2" wide]
1-Making sure the bottom of your fabric is evenly cut, lining up the ruffles, cut two pieces on the fold, using inside out leggings as a guide, including 1/2" extra for seam allowance.
2-I didn't taper the bottom of the leg, and I cropped mine as well. [No need to hem it, yay!]
3-Open up both pieces, making sure all the ruffles are down, put right sides together [not shown] and stitch with a slight zig-zag from the waist to the crotch on both sides, as shown in the photo.
4-Pull the two seams together and stitch around the length of the legs, making sure ruffles match and are all facing down
5-Stretch a length of elastic around child's waist. You want it snug. Overlap ends and zig-zag stitch.
6-Pin elastic on the inside [the wrong side], overlapping 1/4". You'll have to stretch the elastic a little bit to make it fit.
7-Zig-zag along the overlapped portion of the fabric.
8-Turn elastic under and stitch in the seam across the length of the elastic in front and back to keep the elastic down.
Azure loves her new leggings--can you tell?
Doesn't the color remind you of Baskin Robbin's Daiquiri Ice?
Ever had it? It's yum.

1 – 200 of 206 Newer› Newest»I think I'd have a hard time deciding between the white and the yellow... or maybe charcoal. Hm. And, I would definitely use your super easy (who knew?) tutorial for those adorable leggings.
ooo... that's a hard one. I would proly pick the black. I wish they had the polka dots in black. That would be cute. I would absolutely make these awesome leggings!
I love those leggings and I love the turquoise ruffle fabric. I would make a pair of these for my niece... she looks adorable in ruffles! And so does you little girl!
ooooohhhhh pink of course!!!!
The bright pink is my favorite! I would love to make some bloomers for my girlies.
The BRIGHT pink :) I'd make my 4 yr old some ruffle leggings with your tutorial (Yea!) and then something for my little one month old too. Not sure if I could make leggings that tiny, but how cute would they be??

oh sweet! charcoal or yellow maybe?
jacquelynbateman@hotmail.com
How cool, thank you! I would love to have the brown and white dot in my stash - but it wouldn't last long!
With 4 girls, I'm gonna have to go with the pink and then I'd make some tops out of my white with pink polka dot fabric. Oh, I hope I win!
woodyandrachel@tx.rr.com
The charcoal gray is lovely, but if I were to make leggings for my nieces, I would want one of the yellows, either the polka dot or the plain.
I love the fabric! My favorite would definitely be the bubblegum pink and white. I can envision some fabulous things being made from that!
Thank you for the great giveaway.
maryg004@yahoo.com
Oh I love all of them! But I definitely want white, polka dots and charcoal!
I have three baby nieces being born that I want to make something way cute for!
love the bright pink & also the bubblegum pink and white.
So. Cute.
Thanks for the tutorial! These are so cute. Gorgeous pics! I like the plum and bright pink.
Ooooo! Too many favorites! Love the yellow and the charcoal and the black and the white. . . too fun! These leggings would be what I would make, OF COURSE!!! ;0)

I am totally in LOVE with all these ruffles! I would probably go with the white, it would go with everything and I love white on my little one!
Charcoal or Red....hard to decide. I think I would make a cute summer dress...with leggings? (if possible with that much fabric!)
SWEET! I've been in love with the ruffled fabric and wondering where you got it. Thanks so much for posting this!
oh...so cute. thank you for locating the fabric...i would go with white, pink, or gray as it would go with any top,dress, or tunic.
Ooh, I love the charcoal, it could easily be dressed up or down and last my little girl through out the seasons.
I love the charcoal... and as if there's any other option - I'd make your fabulous leggings for my two girls, of course!
I would probably go with white because white ruffly bloomers are dreamy that go with everything but what about the red and the yellow with polka dots? So happy for the source. I hope I win too.
oh, those summer freckles and pig tails! okay, i LOVE polka-dot brown and the bubblegum pink. i would, of course, have to make me some of these bloomers (turtle-sized)! and i'm sure i could find some other uses for those lovely ruffles.
FABULOUS tutorial!
Wow, this is so exciting! I really like the bubble gum pink and white, but when it comes down to it I'll probably buy the charcoal...super cool!
Thank you so so so much for the tutorial & link!
My little girl wears the classic white leggings under ALL her dresses and skirts, so white is a must! But the yellow & white polka dot is pretty tempting!
Leggings is now one of my TOP to dos!
Thanks!
Love love love the ruffles!!! I'd choose charcoal for some awesome leggings to wear all year round. That's only if I only had to choose just one of course ;)
Oh I love the turquoise and yellow. Very sweet tutorial, thanks!
cutest leggings ever!
i love the bubblegum pink and white stripe. i think it'd make a darling skirt for my pink-loving 2 year old stella.
oohhh!! the yellow and white polka dot is my favorite!! I would love to make my trio matching leggings and maybe even a cute purse to go with!!
I love the versatility of the charcoal fabric. My daughter would LOVE this!
OMG! A blogging buddy told me that I needed to check out this tutorial & giveaway ASAP because it is so awesome. SHE WAS RIGHT! I want that ruffle fabric so stinking bad. I think the yellow with white polka dot is my favorite.
Thanks for the tutorial & giveaway!
I love the bubblegum pink and white stripe fabric and I love these leggings! My little one would have such fun with these! Thanks for posting the tutorial!
Yay loving the ruffles, thanks for finding an online source! I would pick the turquoise or yellow and make some leggings for my daughter. Btw love the birthday dress photo shoot, your girls look so sweet. sang(at)gci(dot)net
I like the plum and the sherbet color. I have a top made with ruffle fabric in white and I love it! My 7 yo keeps asking me to cut it down for her.
FIrst of all I am really enjoying some inspiration from your site.
I would love to make some bloomers for my 5 year old out of the light pink and the white. But the possibilities are endless.
Thanks for the tutorial and the link!
I love the yellow with white polka dots. Also the white and pink. So cute!
I am not a seamstress at all, but those are super cute! And Azure's freckles are ADORABLE!
The brown ruffled dots are adorable. Though really, all of it is super cute. I'd definitely make a shirt out of it. Or maybe leggings...

I think a Fancy Nancy dress from the ivory - I think every little girl needs a Fancy Nancy dress and with the ruffles already there, awesome! Of course leggings would be tempting too.
Absolutely gorgeous tutorial!!!
Oh man. The yellow polka dot for sure. I guess I would just have to make some leggings. P.S. I really want to won a giveaway one of these days!!
Cute pants. Cute girl.
Yes, you've induced a craving...daiquiri ice, mmmm.
wow...so cute! I love the brown polkas myself.
the yellow polka dot if I was frivolous. But since I am practical the charcoal or white since I would want her to wear them with everything! I would love to make a summer apron dress out of the yellow polka dot fabric!
Great tutorial! Thanks so much for sharing it! You don't realize, when you see a picture like that, how easy it can be.
I love the Ivory! I'd love to make bloomers for my two girls and adorable ruffly diaper covers as gifts for two baby girls, still in utero at the moment.
PS I worked at Baskin Robbins as a teenager and developed an unhealthy relationship with Daiquiri Ice. Yum.
love the Daiquiri color, love the ice too.
oooh...aahhh.... I'm going to say white ruffles! My gorgeous baby Vivian would look just way too cutie-paah-tootie in white ruffled leggings.
I would have to make some matching leggings for my girls, in yellow or bubble gum pink. But I also might want to experiment with making some throw pillows, since ruffled pillows are all the rage right now. I hope I win!
Such darling bloomers! I LOVE love love the ruffled fabric. Have to get a few colors I'm afraid...
I would make those awesome leggings, of course...but dang! I want all the fabrics!
If I had to pick ONE, it would be the charcoal gray version.
OOO!!! I just like it all :D I think I'd make my little princess a dress and some bloomers from the bubblegum pink & white fabric... but probably a valance for my kitchen from the yellow with white polka dots. tough choice!! :D
ttcrafts.etsy.com
It would have to be the yellow with white polkadots. Yellow is my favorite color with turquoise a very close second.
thanks for the chance to win,
missmelissaf @ yahoo . com
Whoops, forgot to tell what I'd make. I think it would have to be another pillow for my bed. The yellow would coordinate perfectly with my quilt.
thanks again,
Melissa
I am loving the brown and white polka dot fabric. I love the charcoal too though. I think it would look lovely as a skirt, since I am not blessed with any little girls. It would probably look amazing as a sleeveless shirt. Ruffles are all the rage now. I can never decide what a fabric wants to be until I hold it in my hands though. It is amazing fabric though, in any color, or pattern.
Wow, how to choose a color? I think I love the charcoal or the light pink the best. And of course I'd have to do ruffled leggings (light pink). Though the charcoal could look AWESOME as a flounce/train on a skirt.
definitely Charcoal Cascading Ruffle Fabric
likely to make tights for my wee-one
i like the charcoal or the yellow polka dots!
eadelarm@yahoo.com
I'm so excited to find out how easy those adorable leggings are! I would choose white for sure (although the charcoal is tempting!), mostly because I was stunned with the beauty of the white ones you made for your older daughter, and I want some just like it for my own!
I like the gray, the red, and the turquoise, oh and the yellow. thanks for chance.
lbroadstreet@tds.net
This is the thing, I don't sew, I mend. What is going through my mind right now is "I can't believe I ever bought my girls leggins". After looking at your tutorial, wow easy,I think I need to go buy some fabric and make my girls, and my nieces thousands of leggins in every color and pattern. The waste band is what frightened me but I think I can do it your way.
soooo sorry that would be the waist band...it has been a long night.
White. But I have 4 year old triplet girls who like to be individuals (each with a favorite color), so maybe bright pink, plum, and red.
I love the yellow with white polka dots and the charcoal! They would make darling bloomers or a fun sassy skirt for my little girl!
I've been loving yellow lately so definitely the yellow & white polka dots and I'd love to make a dress for my little one & try your tutorial as well!!
OMG! Talk about some super cute leggings! Can I say that I can't decide what I'd like to add to my stash? How about all of it. I love the dots. I should write them with more color combo suggestions!!
Thank you for introducing me to ruffle fabric. I'm a ruffle addict and while they are too cute, they are extremely time consuming. But oh so worth it. Because of the time and effort involved in making your own ruffles, I'd gladly pay $15.99/yd for this beautiful textile goodness!
oh my goodness! Cutest thing ever! I think I'd make some bloomers, maybe a little crewcuts inspired dress or something... I love the yellow and charcoal, can't decide what's my favorite!
Oh so many to choose from... I would pick the brown/blue polka with hopefully enough to make some pillow covers?
Ohhh ruffled fabric, who knew?! We have three little ladies who would look just precious in those little britches!! Great Tutorial!!
I'd pick white, sew sweet! : )
I am in love with it all but the yellow polka dot, WOW so cute!! I may need 1 yard in each color.
So cute! Thanks for the tutorial. I think I would pick the bright pink. But the red is amazing too.
I love the brown ruffle dots... so adorable and the projects to do with it are endless!
I would love the pink/orange sherbet made into a top. the charcoal for a pair or two of those leggings.
Hope I win; however, it is really kind to have 10% off as well. Thank you!
bnkwagaman@msn.com
I would definitely use the light pink cascading ruffles to sew my little girl some bootie-licious bloomers! So cute!
I think I NEED the same exact color as your little one! Too cute!
The brown ruffle fabric with white polka dots is so great! Thanks for the adorable tutorial and the source!
Ooooh! That's a tough decision. I want them all! Especially the bubblegum pink and white. I'd definitely be making those cute bloomers!
lizbet101 at gmail dot com
Ohh I love the plum ruffles! I think a cute little skirt out of this faric would be fantastic for my little toots! Love the tutorial! Thanks
c_pritchard at hotmail dot com
i love the black and charcoal, and since i don't have a girly-girl to make some for i think i'd like to rock a pair of the ruffled bloomers myself!
Well I just love it all, but I really like the brown with white polka dots. I love the capri idea, I also think it would be cute on a onesie or a blanket even.
heidiemyers@gmail.com
I would have to have the hot pink and the yellow/white polkadots. My daughter lives in ruffles and pink and these would be perfect for her!
The leggings are adorable. That yellow polka dot took my eye along with the hot pink. I have never seen this kind of fabric.
Oh they are all adorable, but I think for ease of matching with little girl tops I would want the bubblegum pink and white, or the charcoal. This fabric would be adorable in a skirt, too! Thanks for sharing your tutorial, it's so much easier than it looks!!
I would love all the colors but if I had to choose it would be white because of the versatility. Such a great fabric. An instant skirt, it's awesome.
That is the most awesome thing ever!!! I love the look of ruffles but hate how much effort they are! The white would be great to keep on hand as a simple way to lengthen clothes my daughter outgrows, but I love red! The pink & white stripe would make an adorable skirt and the yellow with white polka dots would make a cute dress.
So cute! I love the brown and white polka dot! I would also have to have some of the basic black.
Thanks for sharing
The pants are darling. But this little ruffle fabric information couldn't have come at a better time!
We have a wedding to go to and I wanted to make my girls some ruffly skirts. So purple (or plum) would be the color on top of our list.
Thank you ever so!
I W_A_N_T some of this!!!!!! I would love to use this to make a beautiful dress for my 8 year old daughter for her baptism at the end of this month. Do they have plain white? I'm about to spend a lot of time on their site, LOL.
I love the turquoise!

The bubble gum pink and white would make such a cute skirt or these awesome bloomers. Thanks for the tutorial!
OMGoodness!!!! Who knew there was such wonderfulness! LOVE the orange and pink ruffled fabric. Well love them all really!!! Hmmmm....bloomers, dresses, even handbags....what WOULDN'T you want to make with this???
OMG! The hot pink for sure!!! Would probably do the leggings and who knows what else? A skirt maybe?? Or a little top to go with the leggings! So many possibilities!!!
I love the leggings! I think my favorite is the white ruffle fabric.
so adorable! I love your turorial, your blog and the beautiful fabric. White will be my choice of color.
I will be making a pillow for my bedroom, if I win!

Oh my, I have never even SEEN such fabric - this could be dangerous!! LOL I heart the pink and white striped ruffles!!! And the brown and white polka dots. And...well, I could go on...I would use it for bloomers and leggings and probably even scrapbooking! LOL
I love these. Definitely pink & orange sherbert - close second the yellow & white polka dots. I have never heard of this company, thanks for spreading the word!
You know, I think I'd have to go with the simple Ivory Cascading Ruffle fabric. Something chic and timeless, and able to go with ANYTHING!
When I first saw the photo I thought they were adorable. I also thought they'd take FOREVER to make. Glad I was wrong about that second part! I'm definitely going to check out rufflefabric.com and hope to make some of these pants very SOON! :)
If I won, I'd have to pick the Pink & Orange Sherbet Cascading Ruffle fabric for my very girly girl! :)
so cute! i love what you made. I'd probably get pink or charcoal... Oh i don't know one in every color.
Oh man, I love those leggings!! They are sooo pretty! I would have a hard time deciding between that gorgeous light pink for my nieces or the charcoal for something for me!! :D The ivory is gorgeous too. Thanks for this opportunity.
OH I love the pink & orange sherbert fabric! So cute! I really could just take about 10 yards of each and be happy! If only I won the lottery this week! LOL
Adore the "Turquoise Cascading Ruffle Fabric." Matches the color scheme of my 1957 house, so I would use for trim on bottom of curtains.
Ooohh the yellow cascading ruffle would be PERFECT for our family pictures!!
I love the pink and the white.
I'd love to make Ivy a pair of bloomers from the lovely light pink!
The pink and white or the light aqua. I wonder if 35 is too old to wear these leggings. I would use it for pillows. Thanks!
I would probably get the white and I would definitely make leggings! I'm so glad you found a resource for the fabric, its just beautiful!
My daughter would love the pink fabric for a pair of leggings. Or maybe a skirt... a lot of possibilities.
My daughter would love the pink fabric for a pair of leggings. Or maybe a skirt... a lot of possibilities.
Awesome fabric. I've seen those ruffle skirts for women on clearance at Target. I need to go buy one and make some bloomers.
LOVE the purple ruffle. I have two little girls who desperately need ruffle pillowcase dresses. ;)
i WOULD CHOOSE THE PINK BUBBLE GUM FABRIC. i WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A BO PEEP COSTUME FOR MY LITTLE BO PEEP FOR NEXT HALLOWEEN. tHANKS!
The Turquoise definitely and a cute little skirt for my daughter would be so adorable.
i think i would go with either the plum or the charcoal. i have cute nieces who need cute ruffle leggings!
I would want the brown polka dot and hot pink ruffle fabric. They're stuff is super cute!
I have four daughters and one little boy, who thinks he is a daughter! We live in leggings but I have never seen leggings this darling before. I hope I win!
Whoops, I didn't say which fabric I would like. I'm loving your pale blue, but I think I would go for the light pink. Love these!
This is the cutest pair of leggings EVER!! I love the hot pink and brown and white polka dots. SO CUTE!! Thanks for the neat giveaway!!

I would LOVE to get my hands on the yellow, but the Bright Pink AND the pink orange sherbet are also GREAT! The ideas are flowing through me! Thanks!

I would get the yellow with white polka dots fabric. I'm a beginning sewer so I'm not good at thinking up my own projects but your tutorial looks easy enough for me to attempt. That fabric would make cute leggings.
I have a problem with decisions. I think I need ALL the colors, but sadly, my husband will not agree. Depending on what I would make, I like the charcoal, bright pink, and the turqoise. Decisions, decisions! What adorable leggings and great give away!
i would choose either the bright pink or the yellow polka dots. That would make a cute sundress! Or the leggings! They are so great!!
I would love the yellow polka dot, white or charcoal and I would LOVE to make me some of those adorable leggins for my little lady....Tiffany. cheerbabe5001@hotmail.com
i love the yellow and white polka dot looking fabric! these are just too stinkin' cute!!! thanks for sharing!
How can I even choose?? I am into yellow right now so maybe the yellow dot? I wonder what the dots would look like on leggings. Did you dye yours that beautiful blue?
I love all of the ruffled fabric! But if I had to choose I probably would go with white or maybe light pink. Your daughter is darling and I love all your sewing! Thanks for the opportunity. Deb
bee1deb@cox.net
I would definitely make the adorable leggings you posted here. . .SO cute! I love all the fabric, but would probably chose charcoal since it would go with most anything. Thanks! Kristin
I love the Yellow with White Dot Cascading Ruffle Fabric, it's so cheerful!
The polka dot, for sure! And I would make bloomers for my wee one and a jumper for my older girls. Such cute ruffly goodness!
Wow...these are super cute. I think I would pick the plum and use it under a super cute Halloween outfit! I actually have some fabric like this and I was going to make a pillow or something. Now I'm going to have to make some cute bloomers! Thanks for the tutorial!
I love the plain yellow, they are all beautiful though. Thanks for the tutorial.
OMG...that fabric is TDF! Using any of the fabrics would make something beautiful but the yellow with dots is my 1st choice.
Thanks for sharing the tut & your source!
super super cute. saves sooooooo much time in making your own ruffles. my neice would darling in the fabric!
I love the Bubblegum pink and white striped fabric!! I love this pants tutorial & would have to use it to make some pants for my 2-year old!!!
Oh my gosh, I am dying right now! You had me at "ruffle"... Then you said polka dot too! It can't get any better than ruffles AND polka dots! My choice would absolutely be the brown and white polka dots. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. Leggings for my baby girl every day of the week!
Oohh, I'm loving the Charcoal Cascading Ruffle Fabric and the black elastic. How did I not know about this place before?!? I love it!!
I love the pink and orange sherbert because orange is her favourite colour ans she would love these tights.
My daughter and I absolutely love the yellow and white polka dots. It just looks so fun and summery and makes us smile!
OhI am ddrrroolling.. and squealing 2 of my fav. things together with an added YAAYY.. I choose- Brown with White Dot Cascading Ruffle Fabric! I love brown and polka dots and your gonna mix some ruffles OH my.. I am not really a sewer :( BUT REAAALLLY have been trying to learn and w/this I can see some cute little hair accessories for my Little Baby girl and I would make a few couple ruffled flowers to add to my t-shirts HOW cool would I be! :)
Oh my... I think I'd have to go for the pink and orange sherbet and the pink and white stripe... I have two girls who would LOVE these. Personally, i want a pair in the yellow with white dot! :)
I wouldn't even know how to choose! I do love the yellow and white pok-a-dots though:) They make me happy! Thanks for sharing...tjward5@yahoo.com
Gosh, I was rushing for my credit card the moment I saw this post. I want them all, but I think the most versatile for my darlingest two-year-old would be the pink and white striped. This is the most charming article of clothing I've ever seen, and I would never have guessed it was made from ruffled fabric. I for one am very grateful for this tutorial -- sure to be one of my all time faves!

If it were my daughter choosing it would definitely be the pink ruffles, I love the polka dots though, esp. the brown and white one. I can think of something to do with all of them! :)
Oh my goodness, this is the best fabric I have ever seen! I love the pink and white stripes and then also the polka dots! Target had skirts like this, and I would love to make myself a skirt....and maybe some bloomers for my daughter!
Well if I could, I'd pick them all, but since that won't fit into my budget, I think I'd pick the yellow and white polk-a-dot. Yellow is such a fun, cheery summer color. I plan to attempt making the the leggings. Oh maybe I'd use it to embellish some shirts too. The possibilities are endless :0)
Thanks for the giveaway opportunity and the ruffled leggings tutorial.
Jill
Oh my goodness, too hard to choose. What great fabric and a great tutorial as well. Thank you.
How to even decide. My little girl is in love with purple (she's 3) and so I think I would go with the Plum one. Very cool fabric!
I love the bright pink-- it would practically match everything in my daughter's closet :) I'd definitely go for your adorable leggings :)
I think I would go with the basic white. So pretty and it would go with more!
Wow .. I'm in love! Anything I don't have to hem ... AMAAAZING!!
Posts like this and fabric stores like ruffled fabric, make me long for a little girl. Since I have only boys, I would love to try and make a skirt for myself in Charcoal! One yard might not cut it though, so maybe a new church bag in polka-dots??! The possibilities are endless though!
I would love, love, love the red ruffle fabric!
I like both the white and the blue that you used in this tutorial.. I forget what it is called.. The fabric is beautiful and I love the ruffles! I would have to make some ruffle-but diaper covers! My absolute favorite.. But I dont have any baby girls yet... so it would have to wait for that.. I might come up with another use for it too though since I wouldnt be patient enought to let that yummyness sit on a shelf for very long.
I want the red ruffles to make something divine for my daughter for Christmas. This fabric is to die for, thanks for showing it off.
Dawn
I'd choose the blue you used in the tutorial. My fave!
I love the Bubblegum Pink & White Stripe Cascading Ruffle Fabric!! My daughter is a pink fanatic and I would love to make those ruffle bloomers!
I love the turquoise and bright pink ruffle! So cute@!
Love the brown and white dot...but daughter would love the pink. I would for sure make her some leggins...and maybe some pillows and curtains! I could go sew crazy with this stuff!
Ill have a hard time picking if its me but I love the charcoal! Ill probably make some of those leggins :]
Wow! Thanks for the tutorial..... ADORABLE. I know my girls would {have to have} the pink bloomers, but I'm in love with polk-a-dots. Guess I'll just have to make them both. Thanks again.
Oh, there all very cute but I like the Brown with White Dot Cascading Ruffle Fabric the most.
caroline_simoens@hotmail.com
I love this idea! My oldest girl will only wear dresses, but she is also very active and flips her legs around and we are working on not showing panties. Some cute little bloomers might just solve my problem. The white would go with everything.
Woah, those are cute. I would love to have the pink ruffles. My little girl loves wearing her dresses, but we have the problem of not showing panties. And the older she gets, the harder it is to find bloomers that fit. This is such a cute idea. Thank you.
These are so cute, I'm going to have to make a pair! I love the white so that it would go with everything!
moontatic10@msn.com
I have my 5 1/2 year old sitting her next to me. She is ooohhhhing and awwwwwing over the Pink/Orange Sherbert and the Bubblegum Pink.
I would definitely make the leggings with your tutorial. Plus I may just need to buy more because a little skirt would also be fantastic!
So cute! Thanks for the info and opportunity!
Wow! First, thank you for the tutorial. Second, thank you, thank you for introducing me to ruffled fabric.com Love it! Honestly I would love any of them but the Bright Pink, the Bubblegum pink and white and the brown with white dot are on the top of my list of favorites! Gorgeous!!!!
All the colors are fantabulous, but I think black is the best choice for this mom of older children :)
I think you can never go wrong with hot pink!! I have twin girls so I have to make everything in two's! Hope I win!!!
I love the bubblegum pink and white ruffle fabric and I think I'd make some leggins for her and maybe if I'm brave a skirt for me!
Yellow with White Dot! I would make leggings for my 22 months old and a skirt for my 6 month old.
I never knew that you could buy such fun fabric. Thanks for sharing!
I love the pink and white bubblegum stripe!! It would make a really cute skirt for my daughter!!
Love the hot pink, light pink and white! Cute tops + adorable leggings = endless possiblities of darling outfits!
oh wow! can i have two "i gotta have it!"s? i would grab some yards of the simple, solid ivory and make some old-fashioned bloomers and a matching nightie for my 5 yr-old. i like the solid charcoal as well. just because.
The polka dots are cute, and I always love aqua! These pants are just darling, and I'm thinking about a few little skirts for my little lady, nothing cuter than a diapered bum crawling around in ruffles! :)
I love green and the charcoal!! Fingers crossed :)
I love the charcoal color, and would definitely make a skirt out of it (I've seen so many like it in stores.) I love your tutorial, maybe I'd make a pair for my younger cousin.
I love the charcoal ruffle fabric so much. What a great tutorial, thanks so much for sharing!
i love the yellow polka dot! I think i might have to make a skirt for me or maybe some bloomers for one of my nieces. So cute!
What an awesome tutorial thank you so much! I can't wait to make my little beautiful angel some. I love the ruffle fabric this is the first time hearing and seeing it. I love all the different styles, colors,and patterns offered. I would love to win a yard of this fabulous fabric. Its so hard to pick which one I would choose I like the brown and white polka dots, same with the yellow dots, oh the pink and white is awesome as well, and that charcoal is so stunning and out of all of them I would more than likely choose the charcoal.

I would love to get the pink or maybe the yellow w/dots. Love it!
yellow! such bright happy fabric. thanks for the tutorial. i can't wait to try it out.
o.m.g.!!!!!!!!!!!! i love the fabric!! i'd go with either white or red and make some of the ruffled bloomers for my girls to wear under their christmas dresses i'm going to make.
LOVE. IT. The leggings you made are absolutely adorable! My little one would go cRaZy over a pair of these. Love all the adorable ruffle fabric options too! So hard to choose just one. But alas...I pick the Bubblegum Pink & White Stripe Cascading Ruffle Fabric. Fingers crossed to win and make a pair of leggings and a matching pillowcase top!
Hola Katy! While I recognize that at this point you probably have enough fabric to make all your ruffled dreams come true I wanted to let you know where I ended up getting mine from. After my last post on your blog I hunted and hunted for it. I ended up buying some on ebay and some at Target. Yes, Target. My ebay purchase was 2.25 yards of stretchy (both ways) dark pink fabric with white polka dots. It was 16.50 plus shipping, which ended at 22.50. My Target purchase was more dark pink, but solid this time. On the clearance rack in the girls' section I found a skirt of ruffled fabric for $9. It already had a black, 1.5 inch elastic waistband so all I had to do to make it size 4T is take it apart and cut it down. A-dor-able. Thanks for all the inspiration!
Oh so cute. I would have never thought off using this ruffled fabric for anything else but a skirt/dress. Thanks for opening my eyes...
I actually love that frosty light blue you've used, but don't see it on their site. I might choose the Navy, or white otherwise, and try making a summer top.

Admitted Fabricaholic-It's darling!! Some days I just want to bathe in all those ruffles ;)
Love this! And thank you for sharing your fabric vendor :o)
My {almost} seven year old is named Azure too! Crazy. And you know, she would love those cute little leggings...someday...
Hi Katy, I came across this on Pinterest and it caught my eye (not because of the bloomers, though they are SO sweet!), but because of that orange dress!! How sweet it is!! Did you sew that one? I am looking for a patterm though I think I could probably draft one up - a lovely A-line shift is quite simple, I would think. I, of course, have NO experience with such an undertaking so I will appeal to my Mama to help!!
