Megan Nielsen Flint shorts

If you are following my Instagram you know that I absolutely love this pattern! I think these are the perfect dressy summer shorts that can look dressed up if you match them with a blazer but also dressed down with a T-shirt and sneakers. The pattern offers two closure options, buttons or a cute tie. I always opted for the buttons so far, so I definitely need to make another tied version!

Sizing & Fit

When I made this pattern for the first time I went for a size 6 which ended up being too big and I had to make quite a few alterations to make it fit. So I reprinted and recut a size 4 this time, which fits soooo much better! The only changes I made were taking in 0,5cm of the center front, center back, and both side seams. Somehow the waistband still fit perfectly and I did not have to shorten it.

Fabric

This amazing fabric is from Minerva. I absolutely love it! It's soooo soft. It's a poly/viscose blend so it's super carefree and doesn't wrinkle.
