Burda Style For people who sew
Description
Somehow these ended up being high waisted but thats ok! the demin was very hard to work with and made it harder to include the small details like the belt and the front pocket. i also broke 3 needles in the process, but im happy with them now!
Material Notes
Denim Fabric, Cotton, brassy buttons

Great shorts, I really like the brass buttons! Its about 4 degrees outside in Colorado, its fun to look at Summer clothes :). These would make great wide-leg pants.

They look great on you! Did you use a denim needle for the sewing? They are thicker and they have a different kind of a point on them than normal needles.

I like the higher waist. As for needles, denim is tough to sew w/o brealing a needle. I average tw-three a project like slacks, usually at the crotch area. The denim stretch needles work better, but I still break at least one. Nehmah

Your shorts look good. I like the details on the pockets and around the buttons.
