Pattern of winter overalls with two zippers. Children's overalls (we sew to children, a pattern and a master class)

Children's jumpsuit - comfortable and beautiful clothes for little explorers! A patch pocket on the front is suitable for storing small finds, and wide legs will not interfere with freedom of movement. Adjustable straps will extend the life of the jumpsuit for several seasons.

We will show how to build a simple pattern and sew a children's jumpsuit with your own hands in just one evening!

Children's jumpsuit: choice of materials

How to sew a jumpsuit with your own hands? Our model can be sewn both from summer, thin fabric, and in a demi-season version - for example, from jeans. For maximum comfort, the upper part of the jumpsuit is made double. The lower fabric is visible on the lapel of the pocket and the fastenings of the frames, in addition, it plays the role of piping along the edge of the strapless, pocket and upper edge of the jumpsuit. Ideal for the bottom fabric - thin cotton.

The color of the fabric should be contrasting or differ by several tones from the facial tissue.

In addition to the fabric, you will need accessories to adjust the strapless jumpsuit. We used a set of a frame with a banner and a simple frame of the same width for each strap. Another option is with buttons. Perform loops on the top of the jumpsuit, and sew buttons on the straps at the required height. In this case, straps need to be sewn with a margin of 5-7 cm in length. You can also buy special fasteners for overalls, both plastic and metal.

To finish the pocket, we sewed a large button to his lapel. Such a pocket can also be decorated with embroidery or applique.

So, let's sew a jumpsuit with your own hands!

We will tell you how to make a pattern of overalls with your own hands, using ready-made trousers or shorts of a suitable size. Prepare a pencil, ruler and scissors, as well as a large sheet of paper. It is most convenient to draw a pattern on graph paper, which is sold both cut into sheets and in a roll. You can also glue several sheets of plain paper, take a newspaper or the remainder of a roll of wallpaper.

Fold the sample in half by placing one leg inside another. Spread the step seam. Circle the outline of the sample on paper: the line of the step seam, the top and the beginning of the side seams. Repeat on the other side of the sheet, straightening the backstitch.

Set aside the required length of the overalls and the desired width from the side seam line from the top line. Make the width loose by adding about 2 cm to the waist and hips.

From the center of the front waist line draw a vertical upward, its length is equal to the desired length of the upper part. Lay to the right half the width of the upper part, it should be less than the width of the chest (the distance between the beginning of the armpits) by 2-3 cm. Draw a smooth lateral line of the upper part, ending it 3 cm above the waist line.

On the back half of the legs draw the same vertical, and then draw the back upper part of the jumpsuit, narrower than the front. Slanted diagonals equal the width of the straps, an average of 3.5-4 cm.

Cut off the top of the overalls from the legs.

Draw the desired pocket outline on the front half. Transfer it to a separate sheet of paper and draw the upper lapel, as shown in the diagram. The height of the lapel is half the height of the pocket itself.

Separately, draw a shoulder strap pattern. Its length can be determined live on the child or measure the length from the waist line of the front to the waist line of the back over the shoulder, and then subtract from there the height of the front and back upper parts of the jumpsuit. Add 10 cm to the resulting value. The width of the strap at the top is 2-2.5 cm, expand the pattern closer to the bottom to 3.5-4 cm.

Working process

Details from the main fabric and additional fabric
Two frames with a banner and two narrow frames
Button, thread, scissors

Stitch side leg seams. Sew over allowances and iron them towards the back. Double stitch.

Stitch step seams, overcast allowances and iron towards the back.

Unscrew one leg on the front side and insert the second one inside, aligning along the central seam. Stitch the central seam, overcast the allowances.

Fold the pocket parts with the front sides and grind, leaving the seam section open. Trim the allowances; in the places of fillet, make triangles.

Turn out a pocket, sweep around the perimeter, slightly bringing up the lower colored fabric. Iron the pocket.

Sew around the perimeter of the pocket. Bend the valve to the front side and fix it by sewing on a button.

Stitch together the straps in pairs from the main and additional fabrics, folding them with the front sides inward. Cut allowances to 5 mm and turn the straps on the front side.

Fold in the rectangular parts for the frames, facing inwards and stitch. Twist, move the seam in the center, iron and stitch.

Insert the frame into the prepared parts, fold in half and sew along the edge.

Stitch the side seams of the upper parts from the main and additional fabrics. Iron allowances to the sides.

Pin or sweep the straps and frames to the top of the main fabric, folding them with their sides inward along the upper edge.

Fold the upper parts from the main and additional fabrics with their faces inward and sew along the entire upper edge. Align and cut the allowances at the fillet points.

Bast the top of the jumpsuit over the top edge. Iron.

Stitch the top of the jumpsuit over the top edge with double stitching.

Stitch the legs to the top, folding them with their faces inward along the waist line. Align the mid-front and back lines and the side seams. Iron allowances up. Tuck the bottom edge of the upper half of the extra fabric and bast it on the allowances, covering them.

Double stitch at the waistline. Stitch the pocket by laying the first line over the existing one, and then completing the second line, as for all finishing seams.

Insert the upper edge of the strap into the frame with the waist, as shown in the photo.

Insert the shoulder strap into the frame sewn to the top of the jumpsuit, as shown in the photo.

Pull the strap up over the waist, allowing access to it. Insert the edge of the strap into the waist and tuck it in, secure it with a pin or bast. Stitch the hem of the strap.

Fold the bottom edge of the legs two times, bast and iron. Sew double stitch.

I sewed this jumpsuit for the baby at the end of winter - the beginning of spring, when it is still quite cold outside. Then we were still very small, we just lay on walks, so I wanted to sew warm and comfortable clothes. I took a pattern of overalls from the magazine of children's clothing Ottobre (No. 4 - 2004), which, in my opinion, is the best magazine for patterns of children's clothing.

I sewed to size 68 (in height), but this pattern can also be sewn to other sizes: 56-62-68-74-80-86.

In detail 3 - from the bottom +2 cm!

The fabric for overalls is polyester on a synthetic winterizer (quilted), if desired, you can insert another layer of insulation (sherstipon, holofiber). For older children, you can use a maid insulation, tinsulate - they are thin but warm, so they are great for kids who begin to walk themselves, and they just need light clothes that will not hamper their movements. Lining - cotton, knitted. It is better to choose natural fabric, because it is in contact with the face and body of the child.

Details (from the main fabric and lining):

1. Breast - 1 child. with a fold.

2. Side inserts in front - 2 children.

3. Back - 2 children.

4. Sleeve - 2 children.

5. Hood - 1 child.

6. Plank - 1 child.

I supplemented the pattern with a pocket on the chest and lapels on the sleeves and trousers, so that it was possible to close the legs and arms.

In addition, I needed two zippers (I took a length of 40 cm, you can 50 cm), Velcro.

I will dwell in more detail on the process of sewing children's overalls. I coped with this task in a few evenings))

Pocket. Sew on the wrong side the main fabric of the pocket with a lining, turn it out. Stitch along the edge and sew a pocket on the breast.

Zippers. Sew zippers to the chest, but without lining.

We sweep, then we trim along with the lining fabric on the front side. Similarly, we sew the second half of the zipper to the side inserts of the front.

If the zippers are detachable, then the junction of the zippers can be closed with a patch (I used a piece of brown leather).

Back and sleeves. We perform the middle seam of the back on the main fabric and on the lining separately.

Then we also grind the sleeves along the raglan line to the main fabric and the lining.

We sew a step seam and side. These details of the main and lining fabric are sewn separately. Then we turn out the lining and insert it inside the jumpsuit.

Hood. We sew the details of the hood, leaving the edge open, which is sewn to the neck. We twist, we trim along the edge.

We sew the main fabric of the hood to the collar, and then the lining fabric, to hide the seam we sew with a blind seam or we stitch.

Strap. A strap must be sewn onto the breast so that the neck and hood fit tightly around the neck. We sew the details of the bar, we turn it out, we cut it off. Sew one half of Velcro to the ends of the strap, and sew the other to the hood. The length of the Velcro must be chosen so that it is possible to fasten the bar tighter and weaker.

For tailoring overalls I needed:

(we are 6.5 months old, but I sewed a jumpsuit of size 74, for growth);
1.2 m of the main fabric (I used raincoat fabric);
1.2 m of fabric for lining (I used fleece as lining fabric);
2 m of insulation (we have cold winters, so I made two layers of double padding polyester);
2 one-piece zippers 50 cm long;
1 cord 80 cm;
elastic cord 1.5 m;
6 clips and 6 lugs for cords.

I supplemented the pattern of overalls with boots and mittens (patterns are given in full size):

I also changed the fringing of the hood and the backing under the zipper (see below)

Step 1. When cutting parts from the main fabric, I made the following allowances for seams (allowances are given in cm)

When cutting the details of the pad, I did all the seam allowances for 1 cm

The zipper substrate was cut out the same way from raincoat fabric and fleece.

Step 2. In the next step, I superimposed the cut parts (both from the main fabric and the lining details) on the synthetic winterizer and cut it exactly along the contour. Each detail turned out to be warmed by a synthetic winterizer. For the convenience of stitching zippers, I did not cut out the substrate under the zipper from the synthetic winterizer, it is better to fill it with the synthetic winterizer then.

Step 3 Since I used a raincoat fabric as the main fabric, and it slides along the synthetic winterizer, it is necessary to sweep all the details from the raincoat fabric along the edge so that the synthetic winterizer does not stray when sewing.

Step 4Now you need to cut off the excess padding polyester on each part.

Step 5 We lay and embroider the folds on the central lower part of the front with a fold, connect this part with the front yoke.

Step 6 We attach fleece strips to the edges of the resulting central front part (where the lightning will be) (the length of the strip is slightly greater than the length of the zipper, width 3.5 -4 cm). I did this for the convenience of inserting a zipper, and then to close the zipper so that heat would not come out of the jumpsuit.

Step 7 Similarly, we attach the same fleece strips to the sides of the front to the edges (where the zipper will be)

Step 8 Now we connect the front sides and the central front part (at the seams that are located below the section for the zipper, in the photo they are marked in red). Here is the result:

Step 9 Scour the cuts for the zipper. In the photo, I put a zipper in the section to show how it will be sewn.

Step 10 We sew back details on the middle seam. I sewed an elastic on the back, stepping back from the edge of the armhole for about 2-2.5 cm. The length of the elastic is 25 cm. Then you can connect the front and back parts of the overalls along the middle seam between the legs.

Step 11 Stitch the sleeves to the front and back parts of the jumpsuit. We turn off the jumpsuit and sew the seam of the sleeve and the side seam of the overalls (with one seam). Unfortunately, I did not take a photo of this stage.

Step 12 Getting to tailoring the hood. We cut out the fringing of the hood (the pattern is given above). I carved it from faux white fur, and I used fleece on the lining.

Step 13 Mark the fringing of the hood.

Step 14 We cut the seam of the hood, embroider a fringe to it (as shown in the photo).

Step 15 We lay the machine seam, but not where we just swept it away, but stepping back from the basting seam about 1.5 cm. This is necessary in order to then insert a lace into this drawer to tighten the hood. You can make the drawstring for the lace in another way, as it will be more convenient for you or as you think will be more rational.

Step 16 Stitch the details of the hood, cut out of fleece. We put the hoods from the main fabric and from the lining, one into the other, with the front side inward (as shown in the photo).

Step 17 We mix the details of the hood along the front cut (in the photo I hold this place with my hand).

Step 18 Then you need to sew this seam (in the photo is shown in red dotted line).

Step 19 We turn the hood and that's what we got.

Step 20 We fold the details of the substrate for the zipper with the sides inward.

Step 21 Stitch the zipper backing. Just do not make a seam at the junction with the neck, we will sew in the hood there (in the photo this place is circled in red).

Step 22 We cut the seam allowance so that it can be carefully turned out.

Step 23 We turn the substrate on the front side and mash the edge.

Step 24 We combine the backing for the zipper with the hood: the front side of the backing - to the front side of the hood, the lining of the hood - to the backing of the backing. We take out the substrate to the hood and shorten it.

The result should be:

Step 25 Now we apply the front side of the hood to the front side of the overalls and wrap them, then shorten them (in the photo the seam is indicated by a red dotted line).

The connection of the hood, the substrate for the zipper and overalls:

Step 26

So the zipper will be sewn:

Step 27 We proceed to grinding the details of the overalls lining. I did not skip the details from the fleece around the edge, since the fleece does not slip over the sintepon.

The grinding algorithm is similar:

1. We connect the front sides and the central front part.
2. We notice cuts for lightning.
3. We sew back details on the middle seam. No need to grind the gum!
4. We connect the front and rear parts of the pad along the middle seam between the legs. Side seams do not need to be sewn yet; they will be sewn along with the sleeve!
5. Stitch the sleeves to the front and back parts of the pad. We turn the lining and sew the seam of the sleeve and the side seam of the lining (one seam).

Here's what happens in this step:

Step 28 On the sleeves and on the trouser legs I made drawstrings for the elastic. To do this, it is necessary to cut strips from the main fabric, the width of the strip is 4-5 cm, to determine the length, measure the length of the cut of the sleeve and leg with a centimeter tape and make an increase for the seam (I hope it was clear, maybe the photo will be more clear). We cut from the sides so that there are neat edges at the drawstring.

Step 29 We draw the wings to the sleeves and trousers.

Step 30 Stitch the side parts of the boots, sew them to the trouser legs of the overalls and attach them.

Step 31We take note and attach the trace.

Step 32

Step 33 We knit and grind mittens.

Step 34 We insert the mittens into the sleeve, sew and grind.

Step 35 We turn out. Here's what we got:

Repeat steps 30-35 for padding the jumpsuit.

Step 36 At this step, the jumpsuit looks like this:

Step 37 We combine the front side of the overalls lining and the front side of the hood lining, wipe them and sew them (in the photo the seam is marked with a red dotted line).

Here's what happened:

Step 38 We connect the front side of the coquette from the main fabric with the front side of the coquette of the pad, wipe and sew.

We turn out. Here's what happened:

Step 39 Insert the lining into the jumpsuit. We make stitches in several places manually, thereby combining the jumpsuit from the main fabric and the lining (the stitches should be free). This is necessary so that the lining does not get off. Be sure to connect the shoes and mittens, the rest is at your discretion, but it is better to connect in several more places, so the lining will be securely fixed in the jumpsuit.

Step 40 We insert the zipper into the incision, attach it to the front of the overalls (we don’t touch the lining yet). It is advisable that the zipper teeth be covered with a cloth.

Step 41 Attaching a zipper. My fabric shifted slightly during the sewing, so the zipper cloves did not completely cover the fabric, although I expected to completely close them. But it’s okay, the lightning pad in this case will save us, it is quite wide, inserted from the inside, so it will block the zipper and will be pressed to it.

Step 42 We notice the lining to the zipper on the wrong side of the overalls (on the one hand, we attach the lining to the zipper, on the other hand to the zipper)

Step 43 We parse the seam of the substrate for the zipper and stuff it with a synthetic winterizer, but not very tight. Then we sew this place with hidden stitches.

Step 44 We insert the lace into the drawstring of the hood, sew the button to the substrates for the zipper.

Attention! Make sure that when the zipper substrates are fastened on the button and the zippers are fastened on the jumpsuit, the yoke should fit snugly on the substrates, otherwise there will be free space and heat will come out of the jumpsuit.

Step 45 We insert the elastic bands into the drawstring on the sleeves and legs (you can insert the laces as you like). They play rather a decorative function.

The jumpsuit is ready!

Winter is coming - a time of merry winter fun and outdoor games. What can cause more tenderness for parents than the sight of children joyfully screaming, running around the snowy alleys and playing snowballs? However, do not forget that winter is also the cold season, when the likelihood of colds is increased. Therefore, for caring and wise parents, winter is an occasion for updating and replenishing a children's wardrobe, because it often happens that children have already managed to grow up from their last year’s winter clothes.

Children's jumpsuit with a hood - we are meeting the winter fully armed

Today we will talk about how to sew a children's jumpsuit with a hood with your own hands. Indeed, the reason for the special pride and tenderness of any mommy will be a child who fearlessly meets the winter not in something bought somewhere in a store or in the market, but in his mother’s hands sewn to provide the maximum level of comfort and warmth.

Contrary to popular belief, it is not required to be a professional in this field to sew children's clothes on your own. The main thing you will need at the same time is a pattern of children's overalls with a hood, inexpensive materials sold now in every fabric store, some skills in cutting and sewing, and a bit of free time.

Cutting and preparation of material

As for the material that we will use - the choice of it entirely depends on your desire and imagination. The main thing when choosing is to take into account that we sew for children, therefore the following requirements are mandatory for the material: it must be practical, strong and, if possible, wrinkle-proof, and at the same time it must repel dirt, dust and moisture from it.

The main fabric should be about 60 per 100 centimeters, the lining is best made of quilted material of the same size. It is clear that the dimensions of the lining are chosen approximately the same. Also, for decoration, you may need a little decorative fabric, we believe that there should not be any problems at all, various shreds and strips of such fabrics can certainly be found in the storerooms of any hostess. You will also need an elastic band of about 30 centimeters in length, a cord of about 70 centimeters, a flat zipper lock about 20 centimeters long and a spool of durable thread.

You can download the finished pattern at the end of the publication. It is best to print it on a printer in the amount of one to one, cut it out, and draw fabric on paper templates. When cutting material, consider that it is necessary to leave allowances of one centimeter.

Start sewing

When assembling the overalls, you first need to grind the middle and shoulder seams on the back. After this, allowances for the seams must be ironed. Then we sew in the hood along the neckline. Now, next in line are the sleeves - we sew them into the armholes. After this, you need to grind the middle seam of the front.

Next, we repeat all these operations for the lining - in fact, we assemble another jumpsuit from it. When the lining is ready, we put it inside the overalls, carefully combine all the seams, sections of the sleeves and the bottom, after which we fasten the lining and measure it. At this stage, it will still be possible to alter something, if it does not turn out exactly as it should (after, of course, you can also fix something, but it will take much more time and labor).

Now you need to grind the side seams into the seams at the sleeves, step seams. After this, allowances in the middle of the front on the front parts of the main and lining fabrics will need to be turned inside out and ironed. At this stage, we grind the zipper, and now we tuck the upper edges of the braid.

As for the neck, it should be tucked on the wrong side, sweep and stitch. Now it remains to pull the cord into the drawstring and fix the stops at its ends. We thread the elastic into the bottom of the sleeve, tighten them and then sew up the hole.

Now we have the hood next in line. On the front and lining fabric, it is necessary to grind the middle seam, align and process the allowances with an iron. After that, put the facial fabric and lining to each other, grind the edges, iron the hood, turning it on the right side.

It remains to decorate our jumpsuit. An applique from the decorative fabric that we prepared is well suited for this. It all depends on your artistic taste and craftsmanship, we sew the applique on the front and our children's jumpsuit is ready. Now, little fidgets are not afraid of winter with its cold weather!
