MBJM Heyday Dungarees (Overalls) PDF Sewing Pattern

The Heyday Dungarees pattern combines comfort with a funky sense of style.

This pattern includes ten sizes, from XXS up to 5XL.

This is a relaxed fit dungaree/overall. It has tie straps which don’t need undoing in order to take the garment on and off! You can use button holes or loops. There are FIVE pockets for hiding all your stuff. An overlocker/serger will create the neatest finish, but all options can be made using a regular sewing machine.

It is designed for medium weight, soft, woven fabrics such as corduroy, denim, linen and twill.

This is an intermediate level pattern. The actual construction of the dungarees is very simple, but you need to be comfortable sewing through multiple layers of thick fabric.

The pattern can be printed at home on A4/legal/letter sized paper, or taken to a print shop and printed on A0 paper.

I am just smitten with this felt gingerbread house bag. This would make such a sweet special Christmas accessory for a kid. It’s a free pattern at Benzie Design, designed by Gracie from Hello Gracie Makes. It’s packed with adorable gingerbread house details, like swirls and stripes and scallops adoring the doors and windows.

And while all those details might seem like this would be a complicated pattern, it’s actually not. The bag itself is made from felt, which makes finishes edges unnecessary. (All of those scalloped edges are just cut from felt, no edge finishing required.) The strap is super simple, made from rope with knotted ends. And all those details are made with some basic hand embroidery stitches. Sparkle felt makes it extra cute.

The striped scallop roof is actually the top flap of the bag. A magnetic snap makes it a secure closure. The rope straps are attached through felt loops at the side of the bag.

They rate this project as an intermediate level, and it should take about 6 hours to make start to finish. That’s doable for a Saturday project or a couple of evenings. Full color photos step you through the entire process.

The project includes a shopping list for all of your supplies. They’ve got a shop so you can order all of them from Benzie if you like and get exactly the supplies used in the project. I noticed it includes a pair of scallop shears, which makes cutting all the scalloped edges for the roof and around the door a breeze.

Finished dimensions of the little felt gingerbread bag are approximately 6 ½” wide x 7 ½” tall. That’s the perfect size to hold a small book, a small toy, or a notepad and some cute pens.
