  You’ve inspired me to make a pair of my own for the summer!

  Now if only I could decide whether to try patterning them myself, or find a glorious ready pattern for highwaisted pinup short shorts…

    Maybe you could try a regular shorts pattern and alter it into a highwaisted one?
    I’m already thinking about making another pair of shorts, but this time with suspenders/ braces, like this one:

    , but highwaisted of course ;-)

    Thank you ^^
    I fell completly in love with white/ red striped fabric when I saw Sweeney Todd (Mrs. Lovett’s fantasy dresses are sooo adorable), so I searched and searched without even knowing what I’m going to do with it, once I had it o.Ô
    luckily I stumbled upon this idea ;-)

    forget about confidence, just try to make them!
    It’s a bit of work, but you’re soo relieved when you’re finished, that you think, you can do anything ^^
    Trust me, I speak from experience ;-)

    The best thing to get started, is to be inspired… that does sound corny, right o.Ô
