Changes:

  • Added detail to step 4

'If you are sewing the side slit feature, set your stitch length to the longest possible when you are 6cm from the hem.

Once the elongated stitches have been sewn, snip into the seam allowance where your stitch length changed (all the way to the seam) and press the seam towards the front above and open below.'

  • Additional notches added 6cm up from shorts hem line at outer leg side seam to indicate change in stitches for slit feature
  • Additional markings added to pattern pieces for pocket placement clarity

Cute Shorts!!!

Foxie boxie shorts

My daughters, novice sewers, had a hard time understanding the directions. The video was not much help to them either. More details would be very helpful. For example: on the pockets how far down should you stitch to make sure the side seam includes the entire pocket area needing to be attached. Angle down? How far? A newbie will be unsure. Maybe sew straight across instead of angle? Your video could have easily addressed that. The shorts are very cute and I don’t want to take away from your skills and joy in sharing with others! Thank you!

Thank you Karen for providing this feedback! I have added clarity to step 4 of the instructions per the confusion as below:
'Starting at the waist, sew down the outer leg towards the pocket using a 1.6cm (5/8in) seam allowance. Stop and pivot at 90 degrees with the needle in at the upper pocket bag corners.
When you sew the lower pocket edge, ensure to continue past the understitching to the pocket joining seam to ensure the pocket is fully encapsulated before pivoting and continueing to the hem.'
I have also added a diagram to reference! Feedback is always welcome to help me to improve my patterns so sewists can have a more enjoyable time using them. X
