These are party shorts.
After seeing a ruffly version of the Class Picnic shorts pattern at Siestas and Sewing, I really wanted to make a pair. Problem was, I don't have the Class Picnic pattern (yet). And I didn't want to wait to get started (I'm so impatient). So I hacked my own pattern using the Puppet Show short pattern that I love so much as a guide. I can show you how, if you're interested, as there is a second pair in the works.
Anyway, the shorts are pretty crazy, but also pretty fun. Just like Ruby.

i love them! would love to know how you did it! :-)
Il est magnifique!!
So cute Jill! I really thought they were legit class picnics. I have a denim pair cut out, but I might have to try a ruffle version after that!
Absolutely adorable shorts. Yes, please show us how! I think the fabric is from the Dragonfly collection by Exclusively Quilters.
Hmmm now THIS is a good idea! I have the puppet show pattern but not the class picnic one...you're now tempting me to do a double hack too!
I also would love to see how you did it!! You are so talented and I love seeing your works.
Those are adorable!
These are just the cutest things! I love that fabric and the color of the ruffles. I wish I wasn't too old to wear those! My daughter hates shorts but, I know she'd wear these every day if she could!
that print is awesome! love the pink with it!
Adorable! YES! Please show how!!
I'm DYING to make these! Please show us! I just have to say Jill that I get so excited everytime you post a sewing project because I love every single one and it gets me wanting to sew!!
OOh, I love these!! Tell us how you did it!! =)
Oh my, these really are party shorts! I still haven't learned how to sew but I love visiting your site to brighten my day! It's cloudy and rainy where I live, so that definitely called for a visit to Homemade By Jill.
Have a great day!
The cutest cream high-waist tap shorts featuring a colorful confetti sequin and beaded detailing. Hook/eye and zip closure at side, fully lined. Looks totally rad ...
how awesome are you, i never would have guessed you didn't actually have the pattern! they are super fabulous. ;)
