Summer is coming and nothing prepares you better for summer than having the right shorts to wear for those hot days and warm nights.
We put together a huge new collection of free shorts for women and girls sewing patterns and projects that will almost certainly have a fit and style that is right for you.
You can find a style that is short or long. Tight or loose. Simple or relatively complicated. I'm confident you'll find something right here.
I hope you enjoy and happy summer!

Where is the walking shorts part one link at? They were featured in my email and were a light blue, with a cuff and pockets. I really like those. I work with kids and need pockets, flexibility and comfort all in one pair. These look like they’d fit the bill.
Hi Michelle, there is only part one. Same shorts just adjusted to XS. Doubled stitched and the pockets got squared corners. Will show you how to do this on the video.

You’re never too old to learn…I’m 78 and this site keeps showing me new/old methods, ideas, lessons and tons of other information. Thank you for that. I love it!
Same sandy! Those are the exact style I’ve been looking for. Hopefully we can find a similar pattern 🙂

First, thank you for all the lovely patterns and tips you share with us. I would love to see a pattern for longer shorts added into your short pattern mix. There are some of us that are no longer young enough or fit enough to wear short shorts.
I agree Paula! I’d love to see some mid-thigh shorts & walking shorts! I don’t ever wanna be that woman who forgets how old she really is when she’s getting dressed lol!
