How To Upcycle A T-shirt Into Leggings

"Learn how to upcycle an adult t-shirt into baby and toddler leggings. This is a quick sewing project and the perfect baby gift! Baby leggings. My baby can have one in every single color and every single pattern. I love them. I’m pretty sure she loves this baby leggings tutorial because they are so comfortable and perfect for being a busy body. They are great for warmth in the winter and protection from the sun in the summer. The baby leggings pair perfectly with dresses and perfectly with tees. And they can be made in about half an hour or less when you reuse the hems of an adult tee shirt!"
