Buy the Belize Shorts and Skort sewing pattern from Itch to Stitch. With just this one pattern, you can create five different styles of shorts and skorts. They all sit at the natural waist and feature a relaxed fit, elastic at the side and back waist, and a medium length inseam (4 1/2″ to 5 3/4″, or 11.4 cm to 14.6 cm). They are also a breeze to sew, leaving you with plenty of time to enjoy the sunshine!
