Burda Style For people who sew
Description
These cute little shorts are from Australian Independant pattern maker Pattern Runway. You can find their patterns on Etsy here.
They have single welt pockets at the back, man-style pockets at the front and a waistband that sits at the waist. The front of the legs have an inverted V shaped scallop, and the back legs are slightly longer.
I made them with a polka-dot printed japanese cotton and used a bit of yellow stretch cotton to cover the piping I used as a contrast at the front pockets.

It looks like you and mr poppykettle are having a wonderful holiday and you look very good in your great shorts. They are a very lovely pair and I love all the detail. I personally think they are nicer than the other ones you want to sew when you get home. I hope you have been able to find some lovely fabrics while you are away- the best souvenirs!!
