It's the official start of summer here in NJ, and that calls for a new pair of shorts! Colette patterns just released this patterns for shorts; Iris. I whipped a pair up this weekend using some cotton from Paron's in NYC. The only pattern adjustment I did was to lengthen the crotch, apparently I have a long torso. I made version 2, with the buttons, but did not cut the buttonhole, and just sewed the buttons on top.
Happy Summer!
Cute - love the buttons and the color!

ReplyDeleteCute shorts!
ReplyDeleteSo chic! Nice shirt too :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute. I love the green fabric.. Top is cute too.
ReplyDeleteThose shorts look great! This is something I desperately need but keep putting off.
ReplyDeleteThose are really adorable shorts. I'm on the verge of hitting the purchase button on the Colette website, lol! I also want to buy the Monetta dress. But a question about these shorts...do you think they could be made in stretchy fabric and pull on instead of inserting a zipper? Just curious ...I thought that since you've already made them you might have an opinion on that. I find waistbands uncomfortable unless they're stretchy (pouffy tummy, you know, lol!)
