Fabric length?
Hey there! I used a fabric with 0.70 m x 1.50 m. Thanks for watching!
Can I know what kind of cloth you used , the print is pretty 😊
hey there! It's a mix of cotton and viscose. Any light fabric will have the same result :)
this is great for beginners and ive used it multiple times tear free.
So good!!! ❤️❤️
Thank you for this tutorial. You made it look so easy. Can hardly wait to try it. New subscriber.
YAAAY :)
Fantastic video - just made mine and your video helped so much - thank you :)
YAYYY! :)
I really like this. It looks easy to follow. My dog keeps chewing up my clothes, and I’m tired of buying new ones(plus I’m poor). I’m currently out of shorts because of it. I think I’ll finally be able to use my sewing machine and make some clothes with this tutorial.
Oh man, your comment made my day! Besides the money part, making out own clothes gives us extra joy when you proudly wear them! I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😘❤️
Thank you so much for your lovely guidance 🌹🌹🌹
Thank you so much for watching! 😘
Hello, When you say to put the front pieces together when tracing around, do you actually turn the front pieces so they are facing each other and then lay it down and trace around or turn it the other way so the back is facing? (Sorry silly question I know but I'm a bit confused)
Thank you for this great video 👍🏻
Merci
thanks
Since i still don't have a sewing machine, I'll try by hand. Thanks so muuuuuch. ✨
It takes a little more work into it but I’m sure you’ll have a great result!! 😘

Is it ok to use a fabric with no stretch.. ? I am new to sewing. Thank you
hey! You can definitely use a non stretchy fabric, the one I use is not stretchy. It just gets a better look if it's light and flowy, but you can use a non stretchy fabric for sure!

Hi, I tried making them but Im stuck in the part of folding the upper part to insert the elastic.. I just cant saw it without it getting baggy..do u have any tips for me? Thank you
hey there! whe you say baggy you mean that the waist is like loose? cause maybe you need to shorten the lenght of the elastic, to the the size of your waist - or a little bit less than that :)
About how many pounds did you get the threading machine for mate?

Hey there! That's a really good idea!! I'm gonna work on a video without having a pattern already. Thank you so much for your suggestion 😘❤️
@@thepolkadotter 👌
thankyou! it's amazing, I'm glad i found this earlier
Hey! Aw thank you so much 😘❤️
Hii :) ive got a question; do you put two elastics in it? What is that blue tie?
Hey dear! I’m not sure I understand what you mean about the blue tie. In any case, you put only one elastic all around the waist. Hope I could help you! 😘❤️
Thanks you ❤️
👍👍👍👍👍
thanku so much....
bạn làm dễ hiểu quá để mình thử xem sao. cảm ơn bạn nhé

This is the most easiest shorts pant tutorial I've ever watched.👍
+Monilola Adesanya aww thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more of these 😘❤️
Hi there! I am a new subscriber and I'd like to thank you for the great content. Much appreciated! I'd like to ask again for the type of fabric that you've used please (I'm a beginner so sorry if I keep asking) 🤷🏻♀️ sending you love 💕💕💕💙
Hello there!! This fabric is a type of viscose. The kind of fabric that doesn’t really need to be ironed. You can use any light fabric you think it’ll work, really! Any kind of polyester or you can try with a cotton fabric too. Hope I could help! 😘😬
@@thepolkadotter thank you for the helpful answer 😘💙 It would be great if you can do a video about types of fabric (just an idea) and are you on instagram? I'd love to follow you 💕
Very easy to follow. Thank you.
+Va Nessa thank you so much!! 😘💗
Wow looks easy to make diy shorts
It iiiis!! :)
Cute short, would try for sure good tutorial . I laugh at toink !!! sound..
Eheh thank you so much! 😘
Should we be using stretch fabric?
+Macy Leigh hey! I didn't use a stretchy fabric in this tutorial, because I wanted a flowy look but you can, and have a fitter look! Thanks for watching 😘❤️
Is this a stretch fabric?
No, it's not :)
Una forma muy facil de explicarlo sin estar haciendo tantos patrones de costura y midiendo aqui y allá 🖒
Muchas gracias! :)
No words , super
Thank you so much! 😘
What kind of machines do you use?
Hello there! For this I used Singer Tradition 2282 :)
Oh thank you
Simple and effective, thank you
Thank you for watching! 😘🥰
wow it was so easy I had make my own shorts
Nice!! So happy to hear that!! 😘❤️
about how much fabric is needed?
+Chloe 1.50m x 0.70m more or less! 😘❤️
I don't have a "small area" on my shorts, could you help me?
hello there! hmm... You have to cut it right in the beggining. just follow the ''pattern'' of your own shorts and you'll definitly have that curved ''small area''. if you can't seem to find it just extend that part in the shorts you're making to look similar to the one in the tutorial :)
Great tutorial!!!
Thank you so much!! 😘❤️
Where to buy cute design fabric??
At a local shop! 😘
Thank you for this idea, because_of I want to sew this for my daughter.
awww, that makes me so happy!! I'd love to see the final result!
Hi, great tutorial, and super clear, but I'm making a mistake somewhere and I don't know where. I've tried twice and each time I can't pull my shorts up past my thigh. I have a small waist and I copied shorts that fit me and are a little loose but each time it still doesn't work. Very frustrating, and I'm a beginner, so I don't know how to fix it. Any help would be much appreciated, thank you!! ❤️
Hello there! Maybe you have to make your waist size a little bigger. With the elastic it will make no difference. I think that way you will be able to pull them up! Let me know if it worked out 😘
wow..so easy
Cool! Happy you liked it! 😘❤️
THANK YOU SO MUCH
You’re so very welcome! 😘❤️
Nice craft 👌👌 now you have a new subscriber
thank you so much!! so happy you liked it!
I would like to ask a question about the tutorial..Why we need to sew both black elastic and then white elastic after together? Instead of only one ?
hey there! I changed the color of the elastic, so probably your confusion comes from that. You're right, you only need to sew one elastic (the one around your waist). Hope I could help :)
Q feito esquesito de costurar
brooo this is such and easy nice tutorial tysm all the other ones r so weird
Thank you so much! I’m so happy that you enjoyed it 😘❤️
mam..shorts hip size 23..Ok..now how much length we will take elastice..
+JEYA LAKSHMI hello! You'll have to measure around your waist and then take about 5/7cm when cutting the elastic! It's everything based in your measurements. For example if you measure 60cm around waist you cut the elastic with 53/55cm 😘❤️
I always use to not cut the elastic before its inside the pants or whatever because having a longer strip prevents the end to be lost and then try the pants on and remove the extra until I have the tension I want then I add about 1,5- 2cm before cutting it.
You can also do that! Thanks for your comment!! ❤️
very very useful and understandable video ...
+Nupur Shukla thank you so much!! I'm glad you liked it 😘❤️
good👌
+Disha Patil thank you so much for watching! ❤️
How long does this normally take??
hey there! a little bit more than the video heheh I took about and hour.... maybe? :)
Can I know what metre elastic U used in shorts ??😅😅
I can’t really remember now, but I just circled my waist! 😘😘
