Jenny Overalls & Trousers Pattern
I was looking for a pattern for some painted overalls that would have enough coverage to get the pattern across without being overwhelming. This pattern was exactly what I needed! The only hard parts were from my own mistakes because I'm still a beginner but it was still a good fit for my skill level.
The fit is great and the pattern is fairly straightforward. For new sewists, it might be a little challenging to understand everything, however I was able to figure it out through trial and error. I had to grade the pattern to fit once I did a basted fitting. I recommend doing a mock-up with muslin first to check the fit.
I made these in the long pant version and it was so much fun. I used a light floral fabric and pair them with a tank. Very spring/summer. Received compliments on the completed overalls from people when out and about. I felt...pretty...so thanks closer core.
This pattern is so good! The instructions are pretty clear and it creates a really flattering fit in my opinion. I’ve made overalls and some shorts so far and can’t wait to make some pants as well.
I love a pattern where I get 4 garments in one. The instrcutions were generally good and easy to follow for a beginner sewer (me!), but I could look up extra details/instructions when I got stuck on the waistband. Great fit, I love something high waisted that doesn't dig into my crotch. Don't bother with the faux fly though, that was just confusing and unnecessary
I recently made the Jenny shorts and overalls and as a beginner sewist, I was amazed at how easily this pattern came together, and even more amazed by how well they fit. What a satisfying, fabulous fitting project! Very very impressed.
