Notas	Made shorts out of this pattern to test the fit first. I encountered the same problem as Nadine; a very big waist forming a bag in the behind, I fixed this by adding 2 sets of darts at the waist in the back pattern, this also made the shorts have a better shape in the rear. In the front, I made both sides so you can open the buttons on the left, or on the right; Only used 6 buttons instead of 8…pulled them out of my stash and didn’t have anymore, lol. Fabric is thick denim with non stretch. Very happy with result, except it was hard getting the right fit. Will I make another, or the long version? Maybe.
