Margot Boxer and Towel Shorts | Digital Sewing Pattern
Description
The Margot Boxer and Towel Shorts are your new DIY-girl-summer uniform. It’s one sewing pattern, but you’ll get two tutorials – one for towel shorts, the perfect companion for beach days, and one for boxer shorts, your go-to for slow mornings and iced coffee runs.
You’ll learn how to sew an elastic waistband, patch pockets, side pockets, and a side split. Plus, for the towel variation, we share heaps of tips for working with towelling (it requires a bit more love than regular cotton or linen).
Both versions are beginner-friendly and designed to help you stretch your skills while building confidence at your machine.
Please refer to the product images for sizing info and a list of materials you’ll need to make the Margot Boxer and Towel Shorts.
You'll find separate video sewing tutorials for the boxer variation and towel variation on our YouTube channel.
Skill level
Our patterns are designed for beginners, but you'll need some sewing knowledge to get started. You should feel comfortable using a sewing machine, sewing straight seams, backstitching, pressing and preparing fabric, finishing a seam with overlocking or a zig-zag stitch, reading a sewing pattern and understanding basic sewing terminology.

What's included?
Your sewing pattern will arrive immediately in your email inbox as a digital download.
Each pattern download includes:
- The sewing pattern files formatted for both home or copy shop printing. The print-at-home document is compatible with A4 and US letter paper, while the copy shop document is compatible with A0 or 36" x 48" (Arch E) paper.
- A detailed instruction booklet in both a print-friendly version with minimal colours, and a screen-friendly version designed for easy viewing on digital devices. It includes preparation instructions, size charts, materials needed, pattern assembly guidance, cutting layouts, and step-by-step written instructions with diagrams.
- A full video sewing tutorial, showing you how to sew the pattern with a voiceover guiding you through the instructions.
Types of usage
We want to make sure our patterns are used in a way that’s fair for everyone, whether you’re sewing for fun or selling your handmade pieces. Here’s how it works:
1. Personal
Perfect for home sewists making items for themselves, gifts, or personal projects. This option does not allow selling items made from the pattern.
Examples:
- Permitted: Sewing a garment for yourself, or making a gift for a friend.
- Not permitted: Selling the finished item.
2. Business
This option is for small-scale makers who handcraft and sell their pieces. It allows you to sell up to 250 finished items made from this pattern, whether at markets, through Etsy, or on your own website.
Examples:
- Permitted: Selling handmade items at a craft market, or listing up to 250 finished pieces on your small business website.
- Not permitted: Outsourcing production to a factory.
What's not allowed?
We do not permit mass production or use by large fashion brands. If you plan to produce beyond 250 handmade items or outsource manufacturing, this pattern is not the right fit for your business.
At Sunday Sewing Club, we love supporting small, independent makers, and this structure helps keep things fair for everyone.
