Very informational on shorts construction.

[@mannybothans2161]

Those turned out beautifully! I love how you go step-by-step for beginners. You should make a video with tips and tricks for people just starting out with the hobby :)

Does the pattern have you do the crotch seam in two steps? I’ve never seen that.

[@agelesstailoress]

Yes, from what I remember it has you do up the front and back parts after you sew the pleats then put the legs of the pants inside each other and sew the rest of the crotch seam.
