How To Cut & Sew Shorts For Men And Boys + Pattern-drafting (DIY Shorts) | @sewquaint

#DIYShorts #ShortsForMen #SewQuaint
Hey beautiful people! In today’s tutorial, I’m showing you how to cut and sew men's shorts from scratch. In this video I show you how to draft a pattern for shorts, how to sew slanted pockets, how to sew a zipper fly, how to add a waistband to the shorts, and how to put the entire shorts together. The best thing is that this can be used to make shorts for both men AND boys. Feel free to ask me questions on Instagram @sewquaint or in the comments.

Thank you 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@anhishere]

Thanks for this video. I'm finally making some shorts that have been on my mind for years and this was incredibly helpful.

[@sewquaint]

Glad it was helpful!

[@sharlenescott9974]

I'm loving the fabric choice 😇

[@sewquaint]

it’s beautiful 😻

[@noodleMoodle253]

I love the fabric, but it’s hard to see what’s going on. I think a plain fabric would be better for a tutorial 🧡 or a voice over explaining what you’re doing

[@sewquaint]

I get what you’re saying. I was making these shorts for someone and decided to make a tutorial on spot so next time I’ll use plain fabric. But the most important thing, is that if you’re determined enough, you’ll follow along.

Genetically I'm 6 foot 7 inches but with scoliosis my corkscrew spine reduces my height by about 7inches. For aesthetic reasons, I need to modify your pattern to a hipster style cargo pants style that mitigates my odd-bod appearance. What dimensions should I change to your standard pattern? As I've retired to the 3rd world for economic reasons, I need super deep pockets down to my knees in order to foil the pickpockets here otherwise my phone and wallet are gone. For small change to pay for transportation fares.gusseted front pockets on cargo pants are a necessity.

Why did u add 4” inch’s more to the hip circumference on your video at time 1:50 ?

[@chefvitaja]

Like the vibes 🎉

[@sewquaint]

thank you!

[@christinabarnes1105]

You said thigh circumference you said measure around the widest part of the hip. Did you mean thigh but you said hip?????❤

[@christinabarnes1105]

You said thigh circumference you said measure around the widest part of the hip. Did you mean die but you said hip?????❤

[@enomadsamohtproductions5296]

Where did you buy that fabric? I love it!

[@christinabarnes1105]

And you pointed on the tape to 38” and you went to 42” WHY ?

[@mariantobeng5969]

[@theophilianortey970]

❤❤❤

[@FatprincessNfatroles]

I just need help adjusting my machine to the correct tension for different thicknesses of fabrics. I found a manual but no videos on how to actually do it so it’s kinda confusing. Any tips?

[@UnyimeJimmy-fq9hv]

No dart???

[@King_Eternal_is_one]

What is the cutting tool you used?

[@King_Eternal_is_one]

And these look great id like to learn how to sew clothing as well

[@Rasmus2210]

9:38? You didn’t show How to make that piece of fabric 😡

[@sewquaint]

You’re not paying attention. If you go back to 6:59, you’ll see me cutting out that piece. 🤌🏽

[@Rasmus2210]

@@sewquaintYes, but you said the part is folded in 4 layers of fabric, and a few second later, when you showcase the part, theres only to layers.

[@historygradstu]

Question, if you have to add two inches for all four panels, then why do you need the extra half inch seam allowance you traced into the outer edge of your pattern? Am I'm missing something,.lol signed confused
