There's something really satisfying about making clothes that get genuinely worn — not just held up and admired, then folded away. Kids' shorts are one of those projects. They're simple enough to finish in an afternoon, and kids will actually put them on and run outside in them the very same day.

These free shorts use an elastic waistband and jersey knit fabric, which means no zippers, no buttonholes, no fussing. The pattern covers sizes 5 through 14, so it works for a wide range of kids. If you've been wanting to try garment sewing but the idea of fitting and closures has felt intimidating, this is a wonderful place to start.

Perfect quick make for Mother's day!

Free Patterns Master Index // Handmade Gift Ideas // Maker's Studio Five minutes, a little satin, and something genuinely beautiful. I have a soft spot for projects that don't need a single stitch — not because I don't love sewing, obviously — but because sometimes you want to make something beautiful without setting up your whole machine. These DIY fabric flowers are exactly that kind of project. A little satin ribbon, a clip, and you've got something that looks like it belongs in a boutique...

It's useful, classic and is so classic it can be used...
