Intermediate Garment: Ophelia Overalls



The Ophelia Overalls are the perfect combo of our 3 favorite qualities; cute, comfy and unique! Their relaxed fit (5” of ease at the hip) is what makes them so comfy and the built-in side belts facilitate an adjustable fit at the waist. The large pocket on the pants wraps to the back seam and is cut on the cross grain (purchase extra fabric if you want to cut it on the straight of grain). Also includes buttons or snaps at the bib-to-strap connection and buttons and snaps at the sides.

Notions:

  • Thread, (contrast thread for topstitching optional),
  • Two - 3/4” vest buckles or two sets of 3/4” D-rings or other buckles or strap or slide adjuster for side belts.
  • View A: Four - 1” buttons and six- Size no. 4 snaps.
