Looking for pattern and video support along with fabric to make yoga and legging wear.
Looks interesting. It has been a long time since I sewed any kind of activewear.
I can’t find out how much fabric will be needed for the sewing challenge on January 15th?

How do I know the difference between these
Jersey Fabric
Compression Fabric
Legging Fabric
Hello Rikkilynn,
Thank you for being patient while I asked the expert, here is the response:
These are all similar fabrics, however the important part is that they have stretch. You can pick any kind of stretch fabric depending on the fit you want- for example: compression fabric will fit tighter than a standard jersey fabric.
Cheers,
