Overalls

Relaxed oversize construction, slightly tapered leg, apron bib with pocket and adjustable racerback straps that buckle at the front. Equipped with 4 pockets (two hip pockets, to patch pockets in the back) and a carpenter pocket on one leg.
Make it in a denim or corduroy for a sturdy garment or in a lighter-weight woven for an easy-to-wear summer piece.

I have made two pairs already, and am loving these overalls. I followed my measurements and made a size 22, but did have a baggy hip and obviously baggy legs. I took in the legs from the inseam and they look a lot cuter. I don’t mind the roomy hip as it is more comfortable and not meant to be skin tight. I used funny fabrics and have gotten a lot of compliments so far! Good basic overall pattern, easy to whip up in a day, easy to adjust to your dream pair. Next I’m going to try stretching it out and making a pair for my husband!
I made these for my daughter and they were just what I remembered wearing in High School. They came together beautifully and were fun to sew with all the topstitching. You'll want to size down if you are looking for a slimmer fit as they have lots of ease due to their "vintage" styling. I wish I had been sewing in high school and I would have made a dozen pairs!
This is a great pattern if you like the REALLY baggy look. Would love to see this pattern in a slimmer style more like what is popular today. Other than that it sews up beautifully !
I bought this pattern years ago and probably have made it 20 times in all sorts of sizes from Maternity to little girls.
