The other day I decided to start making some baby clothes for what will be the newest addition to our little family. Not knowing the gender of my child, I went for a simple little overall pattern. The pattern and official instructions can be found
here.
I made a few little adjustments to the pattern before sewing, but mostly kept it the same. I chose an orange linen for the overalls and a patterned yellow poly cotton for the lining and contrast. The pattern is designed to fit a new baby, though I think it would be a little large.

This is an incredibly cute pattern and very easy to use. I recommend it to others. It could easily be enlarged for an older child and could have the legs shortened to make a little romper suit. The buttons could be shifted for a longer child and the waist lengthened. Overall, a great, free find!
