Shorts with Ruffles and Pockets! Oh My!

Eeek!!

Ok super nervous about the construction of these shorts. I am using leftover red trim from the Christmas Top in the last post and just some white poplin. Why am I nervous? In highschool as a wee 13 year old girl I had to sew a pair of shorts in Home Economics. I failed miserably. I sure hope I can do it this time. These shorts were made in my classes with my sewing teacher and honestly I was worried about them until the very last stitch. Even now my nerves on sewing shorts are still lurking. Maybe I need to attack another pair on my own to build my confidence. I have to admit I am super pleased with the result..

Still scared of shorts though….
