Sailor Shorts by Peek-a-boo Patterns Review & Giveaway... {Giveaway now Closed}

When Amy from Peek-a-boo Patterns contacted me recently asking if I was interested in reviewing one of her patterns I jumped at the opportunity!  If you have already discovered Peek-a-boo Patterns you'll know just how fantastic their pattern range is.

I've originally came across Amy over at her blog Naptime Crafters.  If my memory serves me correctly, one of my first linky parties that I ever participated in was with Naptime Crafters.  So I've been a fan for a while.

Here in Australian sewing circles, Sailor Shorts are huge right now.  I'd seen others create shorts similar to the Peek-a-boo Patterns version and bowing to peer pressure had given myself a mental note to make some myself.

All Peek-a-boo patterns are available to purchase online via the website in pdf and are really simple to print, cut and piece together.  They come complete with a second pdf tutorial with lots of step by step pictures to guide you along the way.  Amy has just also included metric size charts, materials charts & cutting charts... which is awesome for me, since metric is what I've grown up with here in Australia!

The Sailor Shorts would have to be my most complicated pattern that I have used to date and is definitely suited to intermediate sewing enthusiasts.  But when I say complicated, they weren't all that hard to make!  I'm just normally inclined to take the easy route and use basic patterns or draft my own.  

From printing out the pattern to sewing the last stitch, these shorts took me all of about 3 hours to complete.  I think next time I make them I could whip them up even quicker.  There were a few parts that I had to reread to make sure that I was on the right track, but I'm extremely happy with finished product.

Now for the part you really came here for.....
