Finished another pair of overalls

[chuicafina]

I think I mentioned in my last overalls post that I was making another pair with jl&jl's pattern before mailing it back to her. I made this pair out of sweatshirt fleece...easy to launder, comfy and warm for the fall/winter. Here's my little wearing them:

I think I have this pattern! I drug it out today, but decided on a different one for now. But I can't wait to make K a pair. Love the sweatshirt fleece. They look warm and so cute!

Cool! I can't wait to see your version. What did you decide to make for the time being?

I want some! They looks so cozy. Nice work!

Thank you! If sweatshirt fleece wasn't so expensive, I might make myself a pair too...or at least a pair of lounge pants

The overalls in Simplicity 5316. In a charcoal pinwale corduroy. I love a pattern that is only 6 pieces to cut. Working on them tonight after the kids go to bed.

Those are really cute! I agree. Less cutting=better.

Those are adorable~

Now where did you find sweatshirt fleece? I want to make a blazer out of some.

Thanks everyone!!

I found the sweatshirt fleece at Jo-Anns, near the regular fleece. They don't have a great selection of colors (just light gray, dark gray, orange, red, khaki...and that's it I think...maybe black). It's not stretchy like I would like it to be to make a sweatshirt, but I think that's perfect for a blazer where you'd want more structure. Can't wait to see that!
