    Enjoyable project and nice finished result

    I enjoyed making these and they look couture inside and out. Not for a beginning seamstress but not super difficult or complicated either. I will make more of these. I especially like that the pdf has layers so you can select just the size you need, and also that the paper pieces don't need to be cut before putting all the pages together.

    So professional!

    I'm so proud of the shorts I have made from this pattern! I was not sure if I was skilled enough a seamstress, but the fabulous tutorial walked me through it all step by step and I am so pleased with my finished product! Fabulous pattern support too! I can't wait to make some more Frida shorts, they fit like a glove 

    I love these shorts! The drafting and the details are great and the instructions are clear. As a result, no one would guess they are homemade :)

    Surprisingly Quick Sew!

    I'm a self-taught seamstress, so a requirement for a pattern for me is to have excellent instructions and new techniques so I can grow my skill set.

    This pattern is that and more! I've never been so proud of both the inside and outside of a garment before.

    If you are in the market for shorts - you should definitely check them out!
