These shorts are totally sewable for a confident beginner to intermediate seamstress. They have a quality finish that makes them comparable to off the rack clothing. I can’t wait to make more!!!
Rachel Bowles –
I would say that it’s not hard and that the instructions are really good and that it’s pretty easy to customize fit. The shorts have ease which makes them comfortable, but they still feel dressier than my other shorts.

Great pattern for summer shorts with style. Perfect for a sibling/momma and me outfit!
Crystal Anderson –
I sewed up the Berry Bubble Shorts Unlined (utilizing the Add-On option), straight legs, with cuff hem. I love the finished look – they are flattering without being too tight or too puffy, and are easy to get on and off thanks to the elastic back band. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, and the pictures make it that much easier to understand each step. For the summer, these are the perfect comfy shorts (with pockets!)!
Elyse Clarke –
These are the cutest shorts! There’s no denying there’s a bit of fiddly work in them but they are so worth it.
Kyra Delaney –
I loved these shorts! They were fun to make and ended up really comfortable when I was done… which I wasn’t expecting. I sewed up the longer version with linen/rayon fabric and added kamsnaps. I can so see making these again with a fancier fabric and gorgeous buttons!
Sarah Miller –
This pattern was very easy! It is super comfortable and was very easy to adjust exactly how I wanted it to come out. A confident beginner could easily tackle this pattern with a little patience and a little extra time. I love the result I got from this pattern. I will for sure be making more!
Shelby Chubb –
The instructions are incredibly clear and thorough which is very helpful. Before starting the project it all seemed a bit daunting, but once I got started, everything flowed very well thanks to the quality of the instructions (and instructional images).
Dani Arthur –
I have just sewn my 6th pair of Berry Bubble shorts/pants! I just love this pattern so much especially with the add on. I used a higher rise this time with a shorter yoke/waistband for my own idea on a look. I completely love how they turned out. This is such a great pattern with so many options and great instructions!
Jennifer Reeves –
I wasn’t sure how this pattern would look on plus size, but I love it!
The detailed instructions make this somewhat normal complicated and advanced pattern achievable for beginners, too, and the professional finished Rebecca’s uses makes this pattern shine.
Shaina (verified owner) –
Such a cute pair of shorts! Very unique and has great instructions.
Adina Jordan (verified owner) –
Great pattern and instructions made it easy to put together.
Catherine Killen –
I loved making this pattern, doing French seams on the pocket and making everything look neat without a lining, I thought the overall look was adorable and will be a well used pattern in my collection
Ng Puay Choo –
My daughters and I love the Berry Bubble Shorts, perfect for our hot summer weather in Singapore. Love the ladies cuff version, details like the front yoke with buttons and pockets as well. There are many steps involved in making this pair of shorts but it is worth the effort as it look professionally made.
Elyse Clarke –

The instructions are incredibly clear and thorough which is very helpful. Before starting the project it all seemed a bit daunting, but once I got started, everything flowed very well thanks to the quality of the instructions (and instructional images). As they were the first shorts I’ve made for myself, my biggest hurdle was fit. I tried fitting for my waist but I probably should have gone a size or two smaller.
Maxyne Jacques –
I really liked the pattern. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. A little longer sewing than I thought, but the result is fantastic!
Yulia Shikhova Korinnyi –
Awesome flattering pattern with perfect details. Must have in any fashionista wardrobe.
Vicky Boucher –
Love them so much. But with my measures, I was supposed to do a large one. It was too big for me. The medium one is perfect!
Chloe Chew –
Berry bubble is a stylish short which packed with various options. Love it!

Yolonde Bates –
Simple pattern for experienced machinist.
Michelle Mason –
These are very comfy trousers, i love the waistband and really enjoyed the pattern
Maja –
Not so simple to sew, but when finished … shorts I made are awesome <3
Sarah Hopkins –
I love this pattern, can’t wait to try different options. This pattern was more challenging and has many pieces but the instructions are really good and guided me through the steps. The elastic waist makes it a great fit and easy to adjust. Took longer to sew than other projects but a very satisfying sew and worth the extra time.
Kellie Jewell –
This is by far my most detailed sew to date. Each individual step was easy but there was quite a lot of steps to complete. The outcome was so worth it. This is my most neat and professional finish. I love that I was able to do the buttonholes before completing the garment it gave me so much more confidence to know that the whole project wouldn’t be ruined if I didn’t get it right. Can’t wait to make more.
Jane Whicheloe –
Great pattern which tested my skills. Good clear instructions as always. Love them. One I will make again
Erica Triplett –
I really like these shorts! I will say that my waist measurement falls in the middle of the XL range and I could still use to take the elastic in 3 inches and could have graded in to a size L.
Carmen Mills Brent –
These shorts have some fun and unique options that make them a stand out wardrobe piece for warmer months.
Leanne Molini –
I can not wait for the warm weather to wear them. They can be dressed up or just casual for a day out at the beach.
Nathalie Dene –
I love this pattern! It is easier tot sew than how it looks. Nice fit thanks to the elastic waistband. My favourite RP pattern so far
Veronika Lorenser –
This was a great pattern to sew. I had never done any shorts, pocketed or a fully lined item before but the steps were very clear and easy to follow. Having the photos of each step is super helpful. Will probably make the kids version at some point. Thanks for a great pattern!
Marilyn Garcia –
Nicely drafted pattern, but you must read and follow directions in order given or very confusing. Also make sure pieces are accurately cut out, then they fit together accurately. I would not make this pattern up in stiff or heavy fabric, especially the childs. Nothing heavier than quilting cotton if lined. Only thing I did a bit differently was sew buttons on without buttonholes
Susan Pearson –
Beautiful pattern resulting in amazing looking and fitting shorts. Old-fashioned in a way, but ultra modern too! Love the way these came together.
Alieke Enders –
I love this pattern! Due to the very clear manual with photos, it is not difficult to make these shorts! The comfortable fit makes it ideal pants for the kids to play in.
Joy DeLong –
An enjoyable sew. Took about two hours. Instructions are quite clear and thorough, photos are very helpful. It’s a good confidence building pattern for a beginner ready for a challenge. I only suggest a rethink on measuring the back elastic.
Victoria Evitts –
What a beautiful pattern! It’s an involved sew with lots of different elements which combined makes for the most adorable pair of shorts. Not difficult but a pattern where you want to spend a bit of extra time making something really special.
Grace Elliott –
My Ladies’ Berry Bubble Shorts have such a fun vintage feel! I had to follow the instructions carefully since the construction is fairly involved, but the result is worth it. They’re so cute, especially since I made my mini-me a little matching pair in size 2-3 yrs. I love the mommy & me options with this pattern!
Leah McGrath –
I love them! The pattern was a blast to sew. They are perfect for summer and fit so well. I can’t wait to make many more fun shorts.
Nali Nali –
Berry Bubble Shorts pattern is packed with so much details to learn and and I love the clear step by step instructions. Look at the front yoke and the cute buttons positions! I have always wanted to learn how to make a fully lined shorts and now I did. Yeah!
Susan Pearson –
Love the look of these shorts, and the construction is amazing. Fully lined, elasticized back waist, front yoke, pocket and leg bindings – this pattern has a bit of everything.
Ann Ruysschaert –
I will unpick everything and downsize for it is way too large but I really adore this, great for a ride on my bike in the sunny spring-time over here
Ann Ruysschaert –
I should have made a muslin and made it in XL but shops were not open and online it takes ages to get fabric at home, but it was a quick sew and great guidance info
Jane Whicheloe –
I have done the unlined version.Great pattern with easy to follow instructions. Will be a summer staple as they are so comfy
Nali Nali –
I love that the shorts is lined which makes it very comfortable for wearing. Other interesting features are elastic back waistband, pockets and the option for a bubble effect! Great sewing instructions and easy to follow.
Tiina Norrkniivilä –
A fairly simple and quick sew. The finished top looks nice and works for both parties and more casual days. Just remember to pick the fabric according to the look you are aiming for.
Jori Cornand –
Easy to follow and beautiful end result. The shorts sit perfectly and are the perfect length.
Bunford Orsi –
Must have for the summer! Great pattern, very professional looking result! Will make more of these shorts!
