We sew children's overalls ourselves. Pattern of overalls for a baby. Constructing a trouser pattern

I will sew online, that is, together with everyone, taking my time, gradually laying out the sewing process, and answering questions along the way. I will post each stage in a new post, leaving links to previous and subsequent stages. Girls, you can do the same on your blog (magazine, topic, or just in my comments), post your steps with explanations or questions, clarifications, etc.
I warn you that there will be a lot of writings and photos. That’s why, most likely, I leaned towards step-by-step sewing rather than immediately ready-made volumetric MK. I don’t promise to photograph everything beautifully and colorfully, but I’ll try to make it clear and not completely dirty and blurry)))))

In general, I will sew a jumpsuit in the image and likeness of this one for my Ksyusha. I’m not sure about the fur yet, but if there are a lot of people who want to attach the fur, I’ll show you.


There are few details in it. Quite a simple model. There will be no inserts or decor. All from the same printed fabric. I have this jacket fabric with a membrane coating with the image of rainbow zyobers))))
The lining will be fleece and omnikhite. You can take a regular lining, or you can make one lining for the entire height. But full-length fleece will not be very comfortable, I think. That's why I only put it on the front and back up to the butt. Below will be the Slidsky Omnihit, and it will also be in the sleeves. There will be fleece on the collar and hood. I took the TricotBrush, which I had previously put in my other overalls, but it’s out of stock, unfortunately.

And so, my list of necessary materials for insulated overalls size 98-104.

Raincoat - 1.5m
fleece - 0.5m
omnihit (lining) - approximately 1m
insulation (I have Alpolux 200 for winter) - approximately 1m
zippers:
- main - 1 PC
- on the pockets - 2 pcs
- on the fastened hood - 1 PC
wide elastic band 3cm for cuffs - 80cm is enough
decorative elastic band for straps - approximately 1m
hat elastic for tightening - approximately 1m
Velcro
threads
fasteners for drawstring - I have found two things that match the color so far, maybe I’ll take others and make a drawstring on the hood, I don’t know yet...

In my photo I also have an additional gray raincoat fabric for the pocket and frames. Perhaps it won’t be needed, it’s just that the pattern of my main fabric is directed, you can’t turn it anyhow, in case it’s not enough, so I played it safe. But it should be enough for the main details.

I take the pattern from Ottobre magazine 2014-4, model 14. For my daughter’s height of 94 cm, I take the size of this pattern 104. As the practice of sewing this pattern has shown, for winter insulation it is good to take a size one larger than the child’s own. That is, Ksyusha’s native size is 98, one more - 104. This is quite enough, the pattern is good, in my opinion, the width is sufficient.
The changes I make to it are very minor: for reserve for growth, and in general for some convenience I increase the length of the legs and sleeves by 4cm! The larger the size, the greater the magnification. Well, you also need to look at what is planned for the legs and sleeves. I have cuffs, my formula is +4cm. The growth margin turns out to be exactly 10 centimeters. That is, a child with a height of 92 to 102 cm can fit well in this size.
I make the collar 1.5 cm higher. I measured this clearly today. Before that I somehow added it by eye))
Well I'm converting the hood into a two-seam one. This is my personal preference. Not necessary.

I don’t touch the armhole, sleeves or neckline. But perhaps someone will need to lower the armhole a little and widen the sleeve. Girls, look at your children. These narrow sleeves suit me quite well. And, unfortunately, I can’t tell you how to change the armhole...

It's getting colder outside every day. It's time to warm up. Today I want to show you how to sew a children's jumpsuit with your own hands. I sewed this jumpsuit from a ready-made coupon that already had the pattern in the right size printed on it. I ordered the fabric with the pattern from the store. “Bobbin” (patterns on fabric with your prints). Sublimation printing of a design on fabric (I have fleece, you can choose a different fabric). My daughter chose the drawing herself.

This is what the pattern looks like on the fabric, seam allowances have already been taken into account (1 cm). The marks are also marked on the fabric. Instead of a collar, you can order a hood.

We cut out all the details of the pattern: 2 back pieces, 2 front pieces, 2 sleeve pieces, a collar and 4 cuff pieces. It is better to sew cuffs from ribana or cash corse. I decided to make the collar from the main fabric, that is, from fleece.

We sew both parts of the back from the wrong side, as shown in the photo below.

We connect the front and back pieces at the shoulder seams.

We straighten the front and back and sew the sleeve into the armhole, aligning the marks.

We fold the overalls along the shoulder seams and from the wrong side we sew down the side seams, including the sleeves and legs (where marked with a dotted line).

Then we sew one side of the collar piece to the neckline, connecting the marks.

Clips for fixing fabric are possible.

Let's start with the lightning. For a size of 128-134 cm, zipper length = 60 cm. Bend the collar in half and insert a zipper between the layers of fabric.

We sew and stitch one of the two sides of the zipper along the entire length.

Before basting the second part of the zipper, it is better to make a protective strip for the zipper. Since I made the cuffs from cashcorse, the details of the fleece cuffs remained on the coupon. From one piece I made 2 pieces in the form of a semicircle measuring about 5x8 cm.

We place these parts on top of each other with their right sides inward and stitch them where marked with a dotted line.

We turn this part right side out and sew it to the second part of the zipper in the appropriate place. Moreover, most of the protective strip will be on the wrong side of the zipper.

Then we sweep away the second part of the zipper, also bending the collar in half.

Turn and align the corners of the collar. We fasten the zipper and check that everything is smooth. If everything is smooth, then we grind (sew in) the zipper.

We bend the second edge of the collar and sew it by hand with a blind seam.

You can sew a straight stitch on the right side of the seam next to the collar.

Fasten the zipper and secure it with a seam at the bottom. Cut off the excess length of the zipper.

On the front side we lay a straight line along the entire length of the zipper, where it is marked with a dotted line.

Sew the crotch seam.

All that remains is to sew in the cuffs. We bend the cuff parts and sew them into a ring with the smaller sides.

Bend the cuffs in a circle so that the seams remain inside.

Insert the cuff as shown in the photo below and stitch in a circle.

The fleece overalls for my daughter are ready.

Veronica is 7 years old, height 127 cm. I took the overalls pattern for a height of 134 cm - the size fit perfectly.

Overalls are a good solution for those who have the time and desire to sew something for a child with their own hands. This is also economically feasible: after all, fabric and accessories are cheaper than ready-made clothes. In such a thing (warm or lightweight) the child will feel good both in winter and summer. It will be convenient for him to run, jump, and explore the world. Or sleep in a stroller if he is still quite a baby.

Jumpsuits are recognized as one of the most convenient and practical items in a child's wardrobe. In both the winter and summer versions of this suit, the child is maximally protected. In winter - from the cold, in summer - from dust and dirt. The baby's movements are free, maximum comfort is ensured: nothing falls off, nothing comes unfastened if the clothes have a zipper or Velcro.

Sewing a children's overalls yourself is not difficult, you just need to show a little patience and diligence.

You can decorate such clothes in any way - with many pockets, embroidery, appliqué.

When sewing, pay attention to the following points:

  • The seams should not be rough, especially if the clothes are summer.
  • The fabric may contain a small percentage of synthetics so that it does not shrink when washed, but if we are talking about a summer jumpsuit, then this admixture should be small. A damp-resistant demi-season suit will be synthetic, but then it is better to provide a “breathable” lining.
  • It is better to choose a spacious cut so that the baby is truly comfortable.
  • Velcro is easier to sew on than a zipper, but it will be easier for an older child to accidentally undo them.

A jumpsuit made of raincoat, water-resistant fabric will solve the problem of autumn dampness. A summer jumpsuit made from natural fabrics will be ventilated and can be easily washed after vigorous games. A denim top and pants are the most practical option for walking.

How to make a jumpsuit pattern yourself

You will need parameters. Measure the child's height, back length, arm sleeve length, neck, waist and chest circumference. These numbers can be used further. Additionally, armhole depth, shoulder length, leg length, and wrist circumference may be required.

IMPORTANT! When creating a pattern, allow seam allowances of 1.5-2 cm.

The length of the sleeves and legs will also need to be calculated with a margin of 4-5 cm for hems. At the same time, many pattern drawings are made without taking allowances into account, and you will have to make the correction yourself.

As a rule, a jumpsuit pattern consists of parts of the legs, front, back, sleeves with cuffs and a hood. In other versions, half the back and half the sleeves are one piece, similarly divided into two front pieces.

For winter overalls, lining is required, for summer overalls it is optional.

You can use a ready-made pattern.

Ready-made pattern of winter overalls with a hood for a child from 1 to 3 years old

Let's look at the diagram for constructing the design of a winter overalls with a hood from three parts. Due to the long clasp from the throat to the bottom, it will be convenient to dress the baby, pockets will allow you to hide mittens or frozen hands on the way home.

Here the calculations are made for a height of 80–90 cm, but you need to substitute your measurements.

Or jumpsuit with one zipper and funny “ears”.

Pattern of summer overalls for a baby from 3 to 5 years old

Summer sets will appeal to both boys and girls. Short or long, bright and cheerful, the jumpsuit is ideal clothing for playing in the sandbox and running around in the yard.

Here's a fun and fairly simple option - short sleeves and pants with a button closure.

ATTENTION! Before cutting the material, it makes sense to pre-wash it in warm water so that the fabric shrinks. Then you will not be disappointed after sewing and the first wash. This is especially true for natural materials - linen, twill, satin, chintz.

There is a so-called lazy way to sew a simple summer jumpsuit. It can even be cut out of old things. Since the jumpsuit will be very loose, you can cut it without first creating a pattern. A method for very brave mothers with experience.

Here you only need the “seat length” value. It is measured between the legs, the measuring tape is applied to the back of the waist and passed to the front.

Then the shorts are made. A+B – just the depth of the seat.

In this case, the top is made from an old blouse or dress, but the same piece can be cut from a regular cut. For the top you will need the length and width of the back plus an allowance of 1.5-2 cm for the seams.

The armholes of the sleeves are decorated with frills to suit your taste. Instead of a fastener, you can insert elastic bands or sew a jumpsuit so that it can be removed and put on entirely, without fasteners. The elastic at the waist helps for security.

ADVICE! When sewing long overalls, it is easy to provide for the possibility of growth. To do this, the trouser legs are made a little longer than necessary and are finished with a wide lapel. The baby gains a centimeter in height - you release a centimeter of spare tissue.

Pattern of denim overalls with long shorts for girls 5–7 years old

Jeans are good for autumn, spring and summer. This is a natural fabric, practical, so the girl will be comfortable in it. The younger your fashionista, the thinner it is better to take the fabric.

That's very a simple jumpsuit that can be decorated with lapels made of contrasting fabric.

Added to it is a stylish belt that can be tied into a bow.

Important: Denim should be sewn with a special thread. It is better if the sewing machine has a hardened, especially strong needle, suitable for this type of work.

You can give preference to stretch denim, as it will be comfortable to run in, ride downhill, and climb stairs. Stretch requires a special sewing mode on a machine.

Decor and finishing elements

As a child, you can afford the most naughty clothes, and the ways to decorate them are varied. You just need to follow a few rules:

  • decorations should not come off easily if the child is still small;
  • decor should not be made using synthetic smearable paint.

Everything else is just for the good!

Embroidery should be applied to the pieces before they are sewn. But decorative patches, patch pockets, etc. – whatever suits your needs.

Thermal appliqués in the form of boats, animals, leaves and flowers look good. It is enough to simply iron them over the finished item.

IMPORTANT! Don't overdo it with decorative elements. Give preference to those that are difficult to tear, spoil, or tear off. Think about how you will wash your new clothes. Often, a patch pocket with an applique is quite a sufficient decoration.


To sew the overalls I needed:

  • (we are 6.5 months old, but I sewed a size 74 overalls for growth);
  • 1.2 m of main fabric (I used raincoat fabric);
  • 1.2 m of fabric for lining (I used fleece as lining fabric);
  • 2 m of insulation (our winters are cold, so I made two layers of double synthetic padding);
  • 2 permanent zippers 50 cm long;
  • 1 cord 80 cm;
  • elastic cord 1.5 m;
  • 6 clamps and 6 cord ends.

I added boots and mittens to the overalls pattern (patterns are given in actual size):

I also changed the edging of the hood and the backing for the zipper (see below)

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

When cutting out the lining parts, I made all seam allowances according to 1 cm

I cut out the backing for the zipper the same way from both raincoat fabric and fleece.

Step 2. At the next step, I placed the cut out parts (both from the main fabric and the lining parts) onto the padding polyester and cut them out exactly along the contour. Each detail was insulated with synthetic padding. For the convenience of sewing in the zipper, I did not cut out the backing for the zipper from padding polyester; it is better to fill it with padding polyester later.

Step 3. Since I used raincoat fabric as the main fabric, and it slides over the padding polyester, it is necessary to baste all the parts from the raincoat fabric along the edge so that the padding polyester does not get lost when sewing.

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

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

Step 6. We attach strips of fleece to the resulting central front part to the edges (where the zipper will be located) (the length of the strip is slightly longer than the length of the zipper, the width is 3.5 -4 cm). I did this for the convenience of inserting the zipper, and then to close the zipper so that the heat does not escape from the overalls.

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

Step 8 Now we connect the sides of the front and the central front part (along the seams that are located below the cut for the zipper, they are marked in red in the photo). Here's what happens:

Step 9 We make cuts for the zipper. In the photo I put a zipper into the cut to show how it will be sewn in.

Step 10 Sew the back pieces along the middle seam. I stitched an elastic band to the back, stepping back from the edge of the armhole 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 We sew the sleeves to the front and back parts of the overalls. We fold the overalls and sew the sleeve seam and the side seam of the overalls (in one seam). Unfortunately, I didn’t take a photo of this stage.

Step 12 Let's start sewing the hood. We cut out the edging of the hood (the pattern is given above). I cut it out of faux white fur and used fleece for the lining.

Step 13 We sew out the edging of the hood.

Step 14 We sew up the seam of the hood and attach the edging to it (as shown in the photo).

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

Step 16 We sew down the details of the hood, cut from fleece. We place the hoods from the main fabric and from the lining one into the other with the right side inward (as shown in the photo).

Step 17 We sweep away the details of the hood along the front edge (in the photo I am holding this place with my hand).

Step 18 Then you need to stitch this seam (shown in the photo with a red dotted line).

Step 19 We turn the hood inside out and this is what we got.

Step 20. Place the zipper backing pieces right sides together.

Step 21 We sew the backing for the zipper. Just don’t put a seam at the junction with the neckline; we will sew the hood there (in the photo this place is circled in red).

Step 22 We cut the seam allowance so that we can carefully turn it inside out.

Step 23 Turn the backing right side out and baste the edge.

Step 24 We combine the backing for the zipper with the hood: the front side of the backing is to the front side of the hood, the hood lining is to the backing lining. We baste the backing to the hood and stitch it together.

The result should be:

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

The junction of the hood, zipper backing and overalls:

Step 26

This is how the zipper will be sewn:

Step 27 Let's start sewing down the details of the lining of the overalls. I did not baste the fleece parts along the edges, since the fleece does not slip on the padding polyester.

The grinding algorithm is similar:

  1. 1. We connect the front side panels and the central front part.
  2. 2. We cover the cuts for the zipper.
  3. 3. Sew the back pieces along the middle seam. There is no need to sharpen the elastic!
  4. 4. We connect the front and back parts of the lining along the middle seam between the legs. There is no need to sew the side seams yet, they will be sewn together with the sleeve!
  5. 5. We sew the sleeves to the front and back parts of the lining. Fold the lining and sew the sleeve seam and the side seam of the lining (in one seam).

This is what happens at this step:

Step 28 I made drawstrings for elastic on the sleeves and legs. To do this, you need to cut out 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 trouser leg with a centimeter tape and add an increase for the seam (I hope I expressed myself clearly, maybe it will be clearer in the photo). We sew it on the sides so that there are neat edges at the drawstring.

Step 29 We attach the drawstrings to the sleeves and trouser legs.

Step 30. We sew down the side parts of the boots, baste them to the legs of the overalls and attach them.

Step 31 We baste and attach the trace.

Step 32

Step 33 We wash and grind off the mittens.

Step 34 We insert the mitten into the sleeve, baste and stitch.

Step 35. Turn it inside out. Here's what we got:

Repeat steps 30-35 for lining the overalls.

Step 36 At this step the overalls look like this:

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

Here's what happened:

Step 38 We connect the front side of the main fabric yoke with the front side of the lining yoke, baste and stitch.

Turn it inside out. Here's what happened:

Step 39 We insert the lining into the overalls. We make stitches by hand in several places, thereby connecting the overalls from the main fabric and the lining (the stitches should be free). This is necessary so that the lining does not get lost. You definitely need to connect the boots and mittens, the rest is at your discretion, but it is better to connect them in several more places, so the lining will be securely fixed in the overalls.

Step 40. We insert the zipper into the slit and baste it to the front side of the overalls (don’t touch the lining yet). It is advisable that the zipper teeth be covered with fabric.

Step 41 Attaching the zipper. My fabric shifted a little during stitching, so the zipper teeth were not completely covered by the fabric, although I intended to close them completely. But it’s okay, the backing for the zipper will save us in this case, it is quite wide, inserted from the inside, so it will block the zipper and press against it.

Step 42 We baste the lining to the zipper from the wrong side of the overalls (on one side we baste it to the backing for the zipper, on the other side to the zipper itself)

Step 43 We trim the seam of the backing for the zipper and stuff it with padding polyester, but not too tightly. Then we sew this place with hidden stitches.

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

Attention! Make sure that when the backings for the zipper are fastened to the button and the zippers on the overalls are fastened, the yoke should fit snugly against the backings, otherwise there will be a free space and heat will escape from the overalls.

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

The jumpsuit is ready!

Daughter in new overalls!

Hello, Zimushka-winter!

For children, the new arrival of winter means new fun, new experiences! The quality of these childhood experiences is directly proportional to parental responsibility. In order for a child to have a successful walk, first of all, he needs appropriate clothing. The most suitable option for winter snowball fights, sledding or skiing is, of course, overalls.

Overalls will reliably protect the child from the winter cold, provide comfort and freedom of movement.

We offer you pattern, according to which you can sew a jumpsuit like for girl, so and for boy.

Ready-made pattern for children's winter overalls

Height 110cm

Bust circumference 56cm.

Children's winter overalls with insulation, straight silhouette, optimally voluminous, zipper in the middle of the front, stand collar. The sleeves and legs at the bottom are gathered with elastic or cuffs. The belt is worn over the overalls with a latch buckle. There is an elastic band inside the waistband. The overalls can be complemented with a hood. Hood pattern for this size is available in . The hood can be made detachable or sewn into the neckline.

Preparing the pattern for work is extremely simple.

Click on the diagram located at the end of the article and baby overalls pattern opens in a new window.

Print out the pattern sheets, cut and connect them according to the diagram.

Be sure to check the scale for consistency. On a printed sheet with a 10x10 cm square depicted, sides of 10 cm should correspond to exactly 10 centimeters.

This pattern can serve as finished pattern, and can be used as modeling basis. You can apply additional relief lines, add yokes, pockets, knee pads, etc.

The figure conventionally shows finishing trims on the sleeves and on the legs. You will also determine the location of these trims yourself, at your own discretion. You can refuse them and decorate the jumpsuit in any other way, for example, embroidery or appliqué.

You determine the emphasis of the product yourself. This can be a combination of contrasting fabrics, piping, trim, decorative stitches, various accessories, etc.

Stand collar can be made in different variations: fur, fleece, knitwear, etc.

In addition to the main details, you need to cut a belt, the length and width of which you can calculate yourself, depending on the type of buckle, the width of the elastic and its elasticity.

Before you start cutting, as always, you need check the pattern. Take the time to take a centimeter and compare the measurements you took with the dimensions of the drawing.

The pattern is given no seam allowances.

The lining and insulation are cut according to the main patterns.

In the following articles we will continue the topic of winter clothing for our little clients.

If you have any difficulties with printing patterns, write to us and we will post a master class with the details of this process.
