Here is my second pair of leggings from
McCall's 6404. This time I used view D.
I used a faux leather that I found at Hancock. It has a great deal of stretch and was perfect for leggings.
I love the seaming detail. It's what set this version apart from the other. It's topstitched 1/4" from the seam edge.
I haven't actually measured, but the leg opening seem smaller on this version than the other pair I made.
And I also love the trendy aspect of the zippered opening being on the inseam instead of the outside.
Worn with a black turtleneck sweater, a fur gilet and ankle booties.
I can tell you right now this will be a favorite piece for this winter! I'll be wearing these plenty of times!

Thanks!
love the leggings! you certainly find nice fabric at Jo-anns, I'll have to start shopping there as well.
I actually purchased it from Hancock. Thanks!
You look cool in anything. I would look horrendous in them. Am only pint size with a little too much meat going on. Go Girrrrl.
One word.... Fierce.
Love those leggings! Girl, you are working them!!!
Thanks Ladies!
I agree with all...I'm lov'n this look! Thanks to you I'm breaking my rule and headed to somebody's fabric store to buy faux leather and that pattern. This must be a sign,my sewing student just showed me this pattern two days ago, LOL!!!
I love it. I'm definitely going to be looking for this fabric the next time I head to Hancocks.
Wow looking hot! The leggings are fab, love the zip detailing! x
Yes! So bold and chic. I've been wanting leather pants for a year now and so inspired to see someone make them!
Well done Erica B! :)
I love your blog. I love your clothes. You rock!
Thanks!
Awesome job! They look really great on you. Gotta make a pair of those to show off my natural enhancements too.
OMG! Five kinds of hotness lady. I absolutely LOVE those leggings! You are working the whole ensemble.
Thanks Ladies!
Hotness! Love this!
Thanks Carolyn!
I would NEVER have thought that a fur vest and leather leggings would make anyone look slimmer, but the combination is SO flattering! I bought this pattern because I saw the leggings on you and thought "now, I could wear that, that looks pretty good!" Not sure I can pull off leather but am trying them in ponteroma this weekend!
Good luck with yours!
I just got that pattern a few days ago (gotta love a 99 cent pattern sale at JoAnn). I can't wait to make them!
Have fun making yours Jane!
So cool! I have been saving a swatch of faux leather for the same type of pants. I only wish it were cold enough to wear something like these here in Maui. They would be perfect for a trip to the mainland though, if I can ever get off this rock, haha. Love your version and I agree, the zip on the inseam is an unexpected unique detail. Nice!
These are a knockout! You look amazing.
Thanks Allison!
So FLY! I have an older McCall's legging pattern that I want to try. You are always pushing the envelope - love it!
Fabulous! I have yet to show off my leggings (or should I say pants, because I altered them for a slightly wider fit) made from this pattern!
I can't wait to see yours!
