| notimetowork | 4/20/08 | Love the boxers! I usually use Simplicity 9958 so will give this pattern a try! And I always use my CS machine to hem boxers - they look so professional that way! |

| CarolynGM | 4/20/08 | I never dreamed a boxer short review could be so entertaining. Great job on these. You seem to be really enjoying your new CS machine. |

| Nancywin | 4/20/08 | Cindy - you just crack me up! The boxers look great, and I love your tag. Did you make it? |

| cindy-lou | 4/20/08 | I orderd my tags form a lady on ebay (NAYY)-- they are printed, not woven, but also are quite affordable! |

| lilyofthevalley | 4/21/08 | Oh no, too funny! The boxers are great but the visual of DH wearing them backwards is hysterical. Wonder how comfortable it was, sitting that day. And your evaluation of the proper 14th anniversary gift was ... inspired. Congratulations on anniversary, CS machine! -Lily |

| PopoAgie | 2/23/09 | Do you think this pattern would work well with knit fabrics? DS will only wear knit boxers. Would you make a smaller size or just use the same size? |

| cindy-lou | 2/23/09 | Popo, I don't know how this one would work with knits, but I do know that KS makes a pattern for knit boxers. I LOVE their basic patterns and would encourage you to try it out-- let me know how it does if you use it!

| Christas | 2/23/09 | These look so great. I have a couple of sons and also a son-in-law that love for me to make boxers for them.... so fun to match fabrics with their personalities! The pattern I have always used is the "First Choice Boxers" by Timber Lane Press. That pattern is a five panel boxer pattern. Two of my other sons don't care for the five panel type. This Kwik-sew pattern looks like it might be a good one for them. I love your fabric choices! I think your Anniversary gift was a very fun one. |

| rose4524 | 2/24/09 | Fun review, I've been thinking about buying the KS boxer pattern because it IS a KS pattern - and obviously tried and true! |

| Athene | 2/24/09 | Great boxers - I particularly like how you did the waist elastic. I have a pattern I use for my hubby, but I think I may have to buy this one - really like how yours turned out. |
