Micro Shorts - DIY Baby Shorts

I couldn't possibly let shorts on the line pass without adding my own post! Even if it is at the very last minute! I sewed up these super cute and very simple little knit shorts for our family's newest member. I've decided to call them Micro Shorts and I'm more than a little excited about them.

This is a prototype and it needs a tiny bit of tweeking but man oh man are they cute. The took me 45 minutes start to finish and that includes pattern drafting! Want a free pattern and tutorial? I knew you would!

Said pattern and tutorial are coming very very soon. I know I'm such a tease! (It's really just that having a baby means very little time for tutorials.) If you want to make sure you don't miss it, might I suggest you subscribe to my new monthly newsletter?

How is he already four months old?

I know this one is blurry (he only smiles when I take my head out from behind the camera) but it makes me so very happy.

Happy Shorting!!!
I'll be back tomorrow to announce the winners!
