said... as always this is a very helpful review! Thanks Gigi. DH wears boxer shorts to sleep and its been a while since I made anything for him ;-) 9/8/02 11:25 AM
said... Thanks for the helpful tips for ease and speed of construction! Very complete and informative review. I have a 16 yr old that could use some undies, now I have no excuses.. 9/9/02 5:27 PM
said... Be careful, Sew Jane, once you spoil them with home-sewn boxers they will bug you to make a few dozen new ones every time they grow! :-) 9/9/02 6:28 PM
said... Gigi, do they have pockets and side seams? 9/24/02 1:06 PM
said... Deepika, they have side seams but no pockets - easy enough to add though. 9/24/02 2:05 PM
said... I have made this pattern many, many times for my DH. Usually motivated by a fabulous fabric that I can't pass up. I will use Gigi's suggestions about trimming. I've stayed pretty close to the pattern instructions with the exception of the drawstring (I don't put one in). I serge the top edge before making the casing; I don't turn under 1/4" when I do this. 10/15/02 2:09 PM
