Tutorial: DIY lace shorts

Terra from Mama Says Sew guest blogs at Make It and Love It with a tutorial showing how you can make a pair of lace shorts. Don’t worry – they’re lined so they’re completely modest! It’s a cute style for girls or teens or women. In fact, I’m loving the idea of making some for my tween-age daughter to wear to school as all the cute shorts we find in the stores are far too short for the school dress code.
