Put them on and immediately wanted to go somewhere fun

There is something about a ruffle hem that makes an outfit feel like a holiday even on an ordinary day. I wore these to a market with a simple linen top and felt completely put together. A joyful little make.

O
Odelinna Y.
Elastic casing took two attempts but easy once you know

I threaded the elastic wrong the first time and had to unpick the casing seam. The instructions were clear, I just rushed. On the second try I read more carefully and it went in perfectly. The waistband sits flat and comfortably.

D
Daliva K.
Handmade shorts that do not look handmade

I pressed every seam carefully and the finished result looks completely professional. Nobody has guessed that I made these myself. They look like something from a summer clothing brand.

P
Palomita Y.
Gathering technique improved with each version

My first pair has slightly uneven gathers that I can see when I look closely. My second pair is much more even because I understood the technique better. Skill improvement through repetition is one of the best parts of a go-to pattern.

S
Sadisa K.
Made three pairs and still have more fabrics queued

After the first pair I made two more in quick succession. The pattern is genuinely quick once you have done it once and I find myself reaching for fabrics I would not otherwise know what to do with.

Before selecting a pattern size, take accurate measurements of your bust, waist, and hips. Choose the size from our chart that closely aligns with your measurements. 
If your bust/waist/hip measurements align with different sizes, you would want to choose the size based on the apparel category or the garment fit and make adjustments to blend sizes. For example, prefer the size based on your bust measurement for making a top, and waist measurement for a relaxed dress cinched at the waist. 
If your measurements fall between sizes, consider the fit you prefer (looser or tighter) and the type of fabric you'll use, as some fabrics have more give. All patterns include finished garment measurements which can be helpful to know how much ease or extra room is built into the design.
