Sewing Adventures – Bingley Boxers Destination edition

Isn’t this fabric just adorable? I feel like it should be wallpaper gracing the walls of a quaint travel shop where people would go to book holidays to far off destinations. It’s a 100% cotton print from Pitt Trading and I couldn’t resist it.

Made up in The Bingley Boxer Shorts it makes the best presents for someone you love or yourself!

These were going to be for someone else but quite frankly I fell in love with them and quickly switched to making them for myself. I’ve used the super plush Prym elastic (in bright pink no less!) for the internal elastic and it looks so good.

Make wise these are fast with the fly being the only even slightly tricky bit. I highly recommend them as a fast stash buster, great for presents and perfect for your first foray into making pants or shorts.

Now I just need to find the perfect buttons to finish them off.

Pattern: The Bingley Boxer Shorts by Measure Twice Cut Once

Fabric: Destination from Pitt Trading, elastic from Prym

Alterations: next time I could make the elastic a touch more firm for myself?
