Description

I wanted to try a hand at a quick and easy vintage pattern. Just check out the pattern package- so cool!
I’m not sure I’m made for high-waisted shorts, but I decided to give it a go to practice sewing pants and making patch pockets.

Material Notes

Stretchy thin denim and an anchor button. Light cotton with a penguin print to line pockets.

    Those shorts are truly nice. I don’t know if they’d look good on me, but they are a very good style of shorts for you and you did a very good job making them.

      I totally just googled gams and “A nice, long pair of female legs.” popped up in the urban dictionary. Haha. Thanks!!

    I love them, you look like SJP in Sex and the City minus the curls… (especially in that setting!), very cool shorts (and cute guinea pig)!
