Great tutorial! I'm not a beginner, but I thought adding bits like switching back to straight stitch, and reasons why things are done made this video perfect for beginners. I'm watching several tutorials because I want to make my daughter some shorts. While I'm not a beginning sewer (I won't say seamstress, I'm not that level lol), I'll probably forever be a beginning pattern-maker. I'll take all the help I can get! Again, loved your video.

If you can afford it, try athletic fabric. Making your own athletic shorts means no more color or sizing problems at the store and you can make better stitches than done if the Walmart or other store varieties.

Hello, thank you so much for the great video. I got the shorts sewn by hand within 7! Hours with the hand sewn. So you can do that too 😄. I was going to make another one for myself out of linen fabric. Do you maybe have an idea what I have to take into account?❤

Please Help!! After pinning the binding at the sides at 3:42 you said " & now they look like shorts" but you didn't show in video anything & forgot to mention what type of seam to sew & where to sew the seams. Do I sew on both left & right sides of the binding? Or just 1 side? Do I sew them inside out? Or is this topstitched? What type of needle do I use because of added binding thickness? Is it Straight stitch? Please Help!!

Hi I have a question. Do you make the back side wider than the front, so that you can overlap the hip edges?

@homemadebyjillian4591 7 жыл бұрын

Hi! You are exactly right! The way the pattern is drafted, the back piece is wider so that you see the overlapped edges in front (vs on the side).

But what if I wanted to make shorts with Jersey knit it Spandex? Aside from needing a ballpoint needle, I would think the process would be essentially the same.

@homemadebyjillian4591 5 жыл бұрын

Hi! The pattern is designed for a woven fabric, but I imagine poly/spandex would work as long as you follow all the same steps...let me know if you try it!!

I have the same sewing machine! I have an issue where it constantly clogs, do you know how i can fix this issue?

@quitethesoph3558 5 жыл бұрын

Check your tension. That's almost always going to be your issue. If that's not it, make sure you don't have any little lint pieces floating around in your bobbin area. Those tiny suckers can wreak some havoc on your machine, and fabric!

Sorry I know this is probably a dumb question but do you remove the needles as you sew? I have never sew before and I'm waiting for my sewing machine to come in the mail.

@danielleoatway7717 5 жыл бұрын

Yes u absolutely want to remove to pins as u go! U do not want to sew over the pins because u will ruin your sewing machine. Hope I could help.

Hi love your video.....question what size did you cut out your shorts please...I'm making some for my daughter her hip size is 37 inches so i made the 38-40...she lives away so not able to try on until I send them.

@homemadebyjillian4591 7 жыл бұрын

Good question! I have approx 36" hips and I've made both the 35-37 and 38-40. The bigger ones were definitely looser and very comfortable. The smaller ones fit too but are just a bit more snug around the hips. I think 38-40 was a good choice!

hi what type of fabric did you use for this project?

Hi! I used a basic quilting cotton for the pair in this video. You could use any light to medium weight woven fabric!

Hi! I thought I replied to this already but I don't see it...sorry if I'm doubling up! I used regular old quilters cotton. You can use any woven fabric that doesn't have stretch!
