Challenging pattern for an intermediate sewer
This was one of the hardest things i have ever made. I had the most trouble with the waistband and sewing around the little pocket. that was the trickiest part for sure. would have loved a reference video to watch on this part. Overall glad i pushed through and finished my short. I ended up elongating the shorts to the knee as my goal was to reproduce the Willy Chavarria BORRACHO SHORT. They are pretty spot on!

Perfect shorts
I love these shorts! I made them in a soft brown cotton twill. True to size and the instructions are perfect, all five pockets came out so well and the fly instructions were the best that I have seen.

Dern Short
Excellent instructions! I really struggle with sewing fly fronts - practically a phobia about them - but these were really clear and came out perfectly, as have the back welt pockets. I'm very pleased with the results.
