Closet Core Patterns - Jenny Overalls & Trousers #14 - Sizes 0-20

Inspired by vintage work-wear, Jenny is a modern interpretation of classic overalls and wide leg trousers with an ultra-high rise, sleek, functional details and a comfortable all day long fit.

Make a more sophisticated version of dungarees with our well proportioned bib and optional utility pocket, or omit the bib entirely and make a pair of wide legged cropped pants, full length pants or shorts. Optional details abound; mix and match the curved slash front pockets, faux fly front, single or double zipper waistband and rounded back patch pockets. To personalize even further, go all out with high contrast topstitiching, or take a more miminalist approach for a clean, elegant finish.

SUGGESTED FABRICS:

• Bottom-weight woven fabrics:  denim, twill, canvas, gardardine, medium weight linen, jacquard and brocade.
• Woven fabric for pockets:  shirting, chambray, or quiltin cotton (0.5 yd/0.45 m).

Skill Level:  Intermediate
