[@knottygnome]

thanks for participating in the challenge! i've made the flint pants and hadn't cared for them, but i forgot there's a shorts option. thanks for the reminder--yours look great!

[@Thedalythread]

Thank you for starting the challenge 😁 haha no worries, hope you like the shorts version 😊

[@patternpouchnest9529]

Haya. Lovely choices you have there 🙂I have the Flint pattern & after a failed mock up a bunch of time ago I still have not made them up, maybe 1 day ☺Thanku 'sew' much for sharing 🪡✂🧵🙂

[@Thedalythread]

Oh no! That’s a shame! I really like the construction of the flints 😊 hope you get there eventually 😁 you’re welcome!

[@lifesbanquet4501]

Enjoying your style of presentation.

That’s great, thanks so much 🥰

[@annerobinson647]

Really nice choices. Stylish and practical. Thanks

[@Thedalythread]

Thanks so much Anne! Yep gotta be practical for day to day life 😂

[@mairead5891]

I love the Megan Nielsen shorts! I'd never seen them up close, but I'm going to have to buy the pattern to make the trousers now. I've made the Wattle skirt, which has the same waistband and pocket construction, and it's one of my favourites.

[@Thedalythread]

Oh cool! I didn’t know that about the wattle skirt! I’m glad I showed them now 😁

[@mairead5891]

@@Thedalythread the Wattle is really good value, four variations!

[@Thedalythread]

@@mairead5891 great to know, thank you 😊

[@angelalysandrou4830]

Love all your pieces x

[@Thedalythread]

Thank you Angela 🥰🥰

[@janeybeasley9525]

Love your choice of patterns. I’m not a shorts person but I’ve used the Flint trousers several times, I think they are meant to be cropped/culottes but as I’m so short they are perfect as a full length wide trouser on me. I used shy away from a fitted waistband but this pattern fits so well and is so comfortable to wear, I’m not surprised you have so many shorts versions.

[@Thedalythread]

Thank you Janey! Haha glad they’ve worked out for you 👍🏻 yeh I love it, it’s such an easy to fit pattern 😊

[@littlelizstitches]

Love your makes! Very talented. This was a really good video, I like seeing patterns made up as it gives me ideas…and adds to my to sew list! Flints look interesting!

[@Thedalythread]

Thank you Elizabeth that’s very kind 🥰 that’s great, I’m glad it’s given you inspiration. Definitely try the flints, they’re a lovely sew 😊

[@ameliaellensews]

Really enjoyed this one. You may have sold me on the Flint shorts! Your versions looked great ❤

[@Thedalythread]

Thanks Amelia 🥰 they’re a great item, I definitely need to make more! 🥰

[@jolifford4067]

I love the flints, not sure if they would make my top list but it would be close. What weight denim are the flint shorts? I have made 3 pairs of the shorts/trousers but not thought to use it to make a denim set of shorts!

[@Thedalythread]

I actually used a stretch denim even though the pattern isn’t for stretch fabrics. It must be about 8oz 👍🏻
