It’s starting to get very warm out here (high of 90 today), so shorts are becoming a necessity. I decided it was time for me to try to make some from a pattern.
I was inspired by these lovely shorts:
Banana Republic. Love! $55. Ouch.
Now, I’ve never made pants or shorts from scratch before, but I figured you gotta start somewhere, right?
Here is how they turned out!
I like them!
They’re pretty high wasted…
all the way up to the belly button area…not sure how I feel about that
But other than that, they’re super lightweight (linen-type fabric) and adorable!
Hubby told me to show off the back… here you go. the back! 🙂
finished product!
What do you think of the pattern? Too much? Or super cool?
Made New 517 
Super cute! Patterned shorts are awesome. I’m jealous of your rising temperatures, its getting pretty cold here…
