| Mrs.Moos | 6/27/06 | Geez, Debbie--you're good at psychology too? What do you DON'T do? I must try this pattern on my DH--the elastic will help with fitting around the "beer barrel"! |

| sewbehind | 6/27/06 | Very nice pants. Just for other readers, there is a video clip of Sandra Betzina doing the fly front zipper. It was mentioned by someone else (can't remember-sorry) on a previous review. The website is http://www.taunton.com/threads/pages/tvt008.asp If that link doesn't work, go to the Threads website and click on video tips, find the fly front one by SB. Great pair of pants, Debbie. |

| BjP | 6/27/06 | This is one pair of smokin' hot shorts for your birthday fella! Absolutely great-looking and you made fabulous modifications (especially the pockets). I'd make a bunch more for him, too! |

| minieme | 6/27/06 | I agree it's good to bribe the men with sewing for them once in a while. These are nice looking pants that fit better than RTW. I should do some sewing for my DH too. |

| Sew4Fun | 6/27/06 | Cool shorts Debbie. I like all the topstitching and pockets, and the fit looks really good too straight from the envelope. |

| marylynn | 6/27/06 | great looking pants, Deb. And I agree, sew for the men...they strut like peacocks when you do and then they ignore all the EOS packages coming in the door. |

| Mary Stiefer | 6/27/06 | Great review Debbie. Most men I know don't like those drawstring things either. Good choice. |

| Pyrose | 8/16/06 | Great job! You're right about the men loving us to sew for them. My husband was thrilled when I made him a dress shirt for father's day. |
