I absolutely adore these shorts! They sew up quick and look amazing. I love how easy it is to combine fabrics and trims to make a one-of-a-kind item.

My daughter and I both love our Tess Tulip shorts. They are the perfect pattern for adding some fun trim! I love the flat front with elastic back, and the inseam pockets!

Very cute and well written. The longer version is even good for school shorts.

My daughter does not like shorts. “Girls wear dresses and skirts only”.
But these shorts look a bit like a skirt, so she is ok with wearing them.
And they don’t use up all that much fabric: hello stash busting!

These shorts went together quickly and smoothly. The fit was perfect going off my daughter’s measurements. I love the ability to add a little embellishment on the front. The pockets are absolutely genius. While I was sewing them, I had no idea what was going on, but then poof! They worked perfectly. Great pattern!
