How the Girl Shorts came to be

The problem I was trying to solve was to add more coverage to our undies without creating any areas that would be tight or binding on all the sensitive areas. I tried variations of boxers, old fashioned tap shorts seemed promising, but they ultimately failed, being too bulky or pulling on the wrong areas. 

It really wasn’t going well at all until I took what had worked for our first styles and then started cutting and expanding pieces. 

When I ended up changing the piece shown in photo 1, cutting and expanding to photo 2. Of course, the solution was obvious once I found it – so obvious it made me laugh!

Make the shorts fit the body it’s going to cover, not the other way around! 

The front started like this

The solution came from changing the piece this way – anyone else see what I see?
