Sewing Themed Feel Pretty Shorts

Sewing Themed Feel Pretty Shorts

This is a simple pattern designed for lightweight woven fabric and a good opportunity to some of my many yards of quilting cotton. While this pattern works best with woven fabric that is specifically for apparel and has a good drape, the quilting cotton worked very well for the shorts version. I don't think I would use quilting cotton for the full-length pants unless I was planning on them being pajamas, but you never know!

Pattern: Feel Pretty Pants (shorts length) from Ellie & Mac Patterns

Fabric: Quilting Cotton from Joann
My measurements were all over the place (again), so I made a Small, which fits fine. The fabric relaxes as it is worn, so the shorts become looser and more comfortable as the day progressed. I think making them with a little more room in the hips would give them a better fit for me.

I opted for a yoga waistband instead of the encased elastic that the pattern calls for. I also added side seam pockets, but they don't work well for this pattern. They bunched up easily and I had to make them quite small to fit the length of the shorts, so I will try a different pocket style next time.
