converting pants into overalls

3/3/2021 I wore these cleaning out pens around the farm today. I am beyond happy with how they feel. Comfortable YES!  I will say probably not super stylish but I am really happy. Ok very Happy😃
This was a project! Looked easy on you tube but not so much. 6 days! A lot of seam ripping and in the end just making it work. I copied a pair of over alls I already had. But that did not work well. I had a great deal if bunching in the back. Thank goodness for a 1957 sewing machine. I added sone applique for fun and practice.

repurposed a quinceanera dress for a little girl. 1950 pattern

Just finished a 1950 pattern from a used quinceanera dresses. My machine is not making button holes ( rather just destroying when I try and use it). So I used snaps.  This is from a 1950's pattern.
