Free Sewing pattern: Cute summer shorts

Anna from Plan B shares the pattern she used to make a pair of summer shorts for herself. They fit snugly and have a narrow waistband. They’re short enough to be flirty but still long enough to keep everything covered that needs to covered. The pattern will make a pair of shorts in an adult size Small-Medium. (The pattern is available as PDF with dimensions 42.5″ x 22″. To print it, you’ll need to use the poster setting to tile it across multiple pages.) Go to her blog for the free pattern.
