I keep hoping Autumn will come. So in an effort to summon the cool weather, I've been making more pants for Jumper. This time, it's overalls, in a fun gardening tools print (regretting that I didn't pick up enough fabric to make something for Goose too). I copied a pair of overalls given to us in a used-clothing bag. And they are the perfect fit. I really love how they all came together. Probably one of my favorite creations to-date:
For some reason, I love looking at a pant-leg full of attached snaps. I guess after hammering them on myself, I appreciate their utility even more:
My husband and I have varying tastes, but I enjoy getting his fresh approach on things. It was his idea to use the gray fabric for the pocket and knee pads.
And he picked out all the buttons for me at the store!
Our little green thumb, reaping the harvest. Too bad those pumpkins won't fit in his pocket.
Autumn, here we come!

Those are adorable! And where did you get that fabric? It's so cute.
The fabric was an awesome find at JoAnns in the UPHOLSTERY section. They had additional 50% off upholstery that day which made it even better! Like I said, I wish I'd bought more :(
oh my gosh. those are adorable!
so is your guy!!!
and your blog. fantastic, too!!!
Those are so cute!! I love that Daddy helped you out with them. Hmmm, I can just picture Beau wearing them now...
I have GOT to learn how to sew!
FANTASTIC pants! What a cutie wearing them too!
They are SO fabulous! I love the pictures too. It must be fun to have such freaking adorable models. :-)
darling... really, so cute. upholstery fabric? Who knew? Great job.
They are so the perfect fit. I love how the leg falls on them - sounds silly I know, but something I noticed. You and your husband make a great team, esp. on this project.
awr, that material is so cute! great job!
I am so glad I found your blog. I love everything you have made. I will be back for more. Keep up your great work.
I adore the knee patches. Cute AND functional.
these are amazing dana! i've been meaning to copy my favorite pants and overalls but have been so lazy - thanks for the inspiration.
These are so cute. Eli has NO fall/winter clothes whatsoever and I'm having such a hard time finding cute, reasonably priced stuff. I've gotta learn to sew!
I have never loved overalls for kids, but these are so cute! i would definitely put Levi in these!
These are amazing! I love the soft colors and the protective knee patches--essential at this age!
