Surfs Up Board Shorts

This was an easy pattern and fit fairly well. I did add as I saw suggested elsewhere a piece of elastic to the back waistband

Board Shorts

Great pattern and instructions. I was able to use swim trunks from the thrift story to make authentic board shorts and swim trunks. They turned out great. I like the suggestions of adding a little elastic to the back. :)

Board Shorts fun in the sun

This is a great pattern with easy to follow steps. I also find the photos very helpful. The final product looks authentic and fits well. I used the slimmer fit. I also used some people sized board shorts for my fabric as I couldn't find any I liked at my fabric store. Thank you for a great pattern. The boy dolls love it.

Fun pattern for boys

I enjoyed sewing this pattern very much. The possibilities are endless actually. Unless you have the exact waist measurement it is wise to enclose some elastic in the back waist so that the shorts will fit correctly. That is my only suggestion. The rest is just fun with good directions and well done pattern pieces. Another winner!!
