Description & Styling

The JORDAN Shorts Sewing Pattern is a practical and comfortable wardrobe staple designed for active kids. Featuring a comfortable elastic waistband, functional drawstring, and an easy relaxed fit, these shorts are perfect for everyday wear, outdoor play, and casual lounging.

Designed for comfort and movement, these shorts offer a simple pull-on style that kids can wear independently. The adjustable drawstring provides a secure fit, while the relaxed leg shape allows plenty of freedom for running, jumping, and playing throughout the day.

Styling:
Pair the JORDAN Shorts with a basic T-shirt, raglan top, sweatshirt, or hoodie for an easy everyday outfit. They work well for playdates, sports activities, vacations, or relaxing at home and can be sewn in solids, stripes, or playful prints to suit every child's style.

Find Your Fit

The shorts feature a relaxed fit through the hips and legs for all-day comfort and unrestricted movement. The elastic waistband sits comfortably at the waist, while the adjustable drawstring helps achieve a secure fit. The above-the-knee length creates a practical silhouette that is comfortable for active kids and everyday wear.

The model is approximately 1–2 years old with 35" height, 20" chest, 21" waist, and 21" hips, wearing the size for age 2y from our pattern. The jumpsuit offers ease in the hip and leg area, so it becomes critical to follow the chest size for a snug fit.

The model is approximately 10 years old with 55" height, 28" chest, 25" waist, and 30" hips, wearing the size for age 10y from our pattern. The jumpsuit offers ease in the hip and leg area, so it becomes critical to follow the chest size for a snug fit.

For detailed information on how we define our pattern skill levels and why certain patterns are categorized as such, please refer to the provided matrix.

How do I figure out the right size?

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.

Pretty design; Determined to Figure it out

I did not understand that I needed to fold the fabric to get mirrored pieces, or flip one time for the wrap piece and flip one time for the side piece, if using a single layer of fabric.

It's a good thing I am making a muslin trial run before cutting my good fabric. The wrap part is tricky and finicky especially in the center front. Not sure if I am doing it right. I have been sewing most of the day. I am a beginner. Hopefully I can figure out the rest.

I am almost finished with the bodice and front wrap parts after taking it apart a couple times.

It would help if there was a video tutorial that shows and tells the tricky parts. The seams with the straps and wrap pieces are bulky. Not sure if I need to trim the bulky seams or clip curves. These details are not in the instructions. The illustrations are clear so far. I love the design. I will figure it out eventually. Hoping for a video tutorial soon.Thank you for your design.

Great Pattern!

I made a skating dress, and the skater was saying how cold she is (pre workout), so I made this for her to wear before she’s all warmed up. It turned out super cute, pattern was straightforward, and directions easy to follow.

Hi Evonne, Thank you sharing your valuable feedback! Love how the bolero came out :)

First ever sewing project full stop

I bought a sewing machine specifically to make clothes for my toddler. The Charlie raglan was the first thing I made — I chose it because it looked simple and the piece count is small. I used the A4 file, cut size 2–3 in a soft yellow cotton jersey. It took me most of a Saturday afternoon with several pauses to re-read the instructions. The raglan seams are more forgiving than I expected. The finished shirt isn’t perfect but my daughter has worn it three times this week. I’m already planning a second one. This pattern gave me confidence to keep going.

Washes brilliantly — essential for children’s clothing

Children’s clothes get washed constantly and the construction needs to hold up. I’ve washed the Charlie shirts I’ve made at 40 degrees weekly for several months and the seams haven’t opened, the neckband hasn’t stretched, and the colours (I used prewashed organic jersey) have stayed true. I’m an intermediate sewer and the construction feels robust — the seam allowances are generous enough for repeated washing. Used the Letter file, sizes 4–5 and 6–7 for my two children. These have become the most-worn items in their wardrobes. Durable, comfortable, practical kids’ sewing.

The contrasting sleeve detail makes it look like a real sports shirt

My son is obsessed with football and wanted a shirt that looked like his team kit. The Charlie raglan with contrasting sleeve panels is exactly that aesthetic — I made it in his team’s colours (green body, white sleeves) and he was so excited when I presented it that he put it straight on and ran outside. I’m an intermediate sewer and used the A0 file. Cut size 7–8. The raglan seams are clean and the shirt moves well with him when he plays. I’ve since made a second pair for a friend’s son in different colours. Fast, satisfying, and clearly beloved by the recipient.
