Waves & Wild Baby/Child Speedy Pants (free)

The Baby/Child Speedy Pants is a free sewing pattern from Waves & Wild. This pattern includes two styles of children's underwear: boxers and briefs. Both styles are modest and comfortable for children of all ages and are very quick to make (hence the name). They are beginner friendly and perfect for using up scraps and offcuts from larger projects. An overlocker/serger will create a neater, more professional finish, but instructions are also included for using a regular sewing machine.
