Materials Needed:
– 1 yard of cotton fabric
– Elastic band
– Sewing machine
– Thread
– Scissors
– Pins
– Ruler
– Marking pen

Instructions:
1. Start by washing and drying your fabric to pre-shrink it before cutting and sewing.

2. Cut out the following pieces from your fabric:
– Two main pieces for the front and back of the boxer shorts, measuring 12 inches wide and 16 inches long.
– Two side pieces for the sides of the boxer shorts, measuring 6 inches wide and 16 inches long.
– One waistband piece, measuring 2 inches wide and 34 inches long.
– Two leg bands, measuring 2 inches wide and 14 inches long.

3. Place the front and back main pieces right sides together and sew along the curved edges to create the crotch seam.

4. Place the side pieces right sides together with the front and back pieces, matching up the raw edges. Sew along the side seams to connect all the pieces together.

5. Fold over the waistband piece in half lengthwise with the wrong sides together and press. Attach the waistband to the top edge of the boxer shorts, matching up the raw edges and stretching the waistband slightly to fit.

6. Sew the waistband in place, leaving a small opening to insert the elastic band.

7. Cut the elastic band to your desired waist measurement, plus 1 inch for overlap. Thread the elastic band through the waistband casing using a safety pin, and sew the ends of the elastic band together.

8. Sew the opening in the waistband closed.

9. Fold over the leg bands in half lengthwise with the wrong sides together and press. Attach the leg bands to the bottom edges of the boxer shorts, matching up the raw edges and stretching the leg bands slightly to fit.

10. Sew the leg bands in place, ensuring that the seams are secure.

11. Trim any excess threads and turn the boxer shorts right side out.
