Emerson Shorts



The Emerson shorts are flattering, fairly easy, and a great way to work on your garment sewing.

In this class, you'll learn how to choose your size, make darts/pleats, make an elastic casing, hem and more. These shorts are a pull-on style, so you'll have a flattering pair of shorts without a zipper!

Emerson pattern
Fabric, amount listed on pattern for your size. Consider Brussels Washer linen, Essex linen, or any quilting cotton for a fun print or solid
PLEASE PRE-WASH FABRIC BEFORE THE CLASS!
