How To Make Boxers from Old Pillowcases
If you saw the video and you want step by step instructions on how to make those rad anti-Valentine's Day boxers, here it is!
1. First you'll need to make a pattern for your boxers. Check our blog for instructions. Once you've made your pattern, pin them on a pillowcase and cut them out making sure to cut through both sides of the pillowcase so you have 4 pieces total.
2. Now lay your identical pieces back on top of one another, pin and sew together the front and back pieces to create the front and back pieces of your boxers.
3. Now put your two pieces right sides on top of one another and sew your sides together.
4. Next, attach the crotch making sure to fold down the seam line when you're sewing.
5. Then turn your boxers right side out and add a seam to the leg-hole.
6. Now for the front flap, you're going to fold it over evenly and sew down both sides. Then take the flap from the other side and add a simple hem down its side.
7. One done, tuck it under and connect both pieces on the bottom and the top.
8. Next, you'll want to create a casing for your elastic. Do this by using the elastic as a guide around the waist of your shorts. Make sure you line up your front flaps evenly and sew together.
10. Last, you'll sew closed your casing, add your Anti-valentine's day stencil and you're ready to rock! (Check our Extras page for more anti-valentine's day and other stencils)
