Railroad Stripe Harlene Dungarees

Tramadol 100Mg Buy Online I feel like I have been crossing so many garments off my “dream wardrobe” list lately and these railroad stripe Harlene Dungarees where high on that list. I had been looking for a classic overalls pattern and I already knew from sewing my first pair that the Harlene Dungarees fit the bill.

Size traced and sewn

https://autismwish.org/8xj7vlmjq The Harlene Dungarees have a lot of ease and I had already sized down two sizes from what the chart put me in for my first pair. Since those were sewn to be gardening overalls, it didn’t matter that they were a bit big, but I knew I wanted my next pair to be more fitted, so I sewed a straight size 12 this time.

Construction notes

https://ict-pulse.com/2024/07/zafgqe9 The only difference in the way I constructed these this time is that I decided to followed the pattern instructions for which side of the pocket fabric shows. Last time, I opted to put the pocket linings pretty side out (so I could see the right side on the inside), like is recommended for the Ginger Jeans. Due to the fit of these overalls, the pockets tend to pop open, so I felt it would be better to see the right side of the fabric inside the pocket this time.

Originally, I had purchased navy blue topstitching thread for this project, but when I tested it out on scrap fabric, you could hardly see it, so I ordered some white topstitching thread and I am so glad I did. I like it so much better and it feels much more classic with the white topstitching thread.

Fit

The size 12 is just how I wanted these to fit. They are more fitted than my first pair without being too tight, so I feel like I picked exactly the right size this time!

Final Thoughts

Add another garment to my dream wardrobe! These are so comfy and already getting a lot of wear. My original Harlene Dungarees will remain my gardening overalls, as I would like to keep this pair sort of nice, but these are great for wearing around the house, especially while working on craft projects!
