Amy Beth, you look so fancy in your beautiful overalls. You just step right into teacher mode as you begin to share your story. I loved your ingenious idea of the elastic in the back shoulder strap casing. You should be a pattern designer. Thanks for another great podcast. ❤️🌹
Amy, I value your insights, experiences, projects, and most importantly for me, your humor. If I’m feeling blue, I turn to your channel. This bonus video was absolutely wonderful! Please do more garment sewing videos along with your knitting videos. You are a boss!!! 🤎
"I don't want to grade AND make adjustments." That says it all. I love you!
"When it's a problem it is a crotch". So much truth in so many areas of my life! I so appreciate the open discussion of fat bodies as bodies, and not problems.
Oh how I love you! Demo of taking your pants off made me smile and giggle. Those overalls are lovely. I love the colour you dyed them and your joy of wearing them is contagious. Thanks for another fantastic video XXX
I don't sew (knitter only), but I could listen to you talk about nearly anything and thoroughly enjoy it. Thank you for this wonderful episode.
How to take your pants of cracked me up and was SO USEFUL because i wouldn't have thought of that!
I so appreciate your messages about loving the body you have right at this moment. That is something I will have to ruminate on. Your podcast is such a joy to me. Thanks for sharing your world with us!
Just when I thought I couldn't love you more, you share your creativity, positivity, vulnerability and pragmatism. It does feel like I am in the room with you; I found myself 'looking out for' the UPS man. Thank you for every word, every expressed or implied thought. My daughter and I were already planning to make ourselves 'Otis'' and your tips are pretty near priceless. (Yep. Everyone should be supporting your forum, Patreon, KoFi, etc.)
I love how much your light always shines through. Also, flat felling by hand is one of the best things
I love when you say you can have something you love, not just something that will do! I'm very short and round. I have felt that my whole life.
This is resourceFULL and so enjoyable to watch and listen. It makes all the difference to me when a Maker shares their Why and these details (which are not always easy to articulate and organize). I'm rattling that tip jar for you, lovely. Well-earned! Thank you
"that's how you take your pants off" -- OMG hahahahaha! I am 100% here for this content. Keeping it real and practical. May you have as much joy at some point this week that I just got from that single segment.
You did an awesome job with these overalls! The color and the way they fit you is perfect and you look so fancy! Just beautiful!
This is my fourth time watching this episode. I love your energy and laughter. It always makes my whole week. Thank you.
Thank you sooo much for this show today; soooo many great tips and your enthusiasm for this project is infectious;I’m thinking like..... damn! I need a pair of these overalls! 🥰❤️👏🏼
Your Otis looks great. Love the colour and the special fabric on the inside. Love the pattern. Easy to follow but did watch their videos when doing the side pockets. Great video!
Wow, your overalls look awesome on you! I've never had any that didn't hide my waist, and now I see I never had the right overalls. Thank you!
You crack me up. Thanks for being so honest. I recently bought a sewing machine & I’m thinking of making myself a few tops for the summer. I follow you for the knitting but now I’m inspired to sew 😀
I'm so glad you posted this! I've been very inspired to dust off my sewing machine after seeing this pattern on Instagram.
Secret dance party!!!🤣🤣🤣 Thank you so much for sharing. I love these overalls. Your hair looks super cute! I hope you have a great spring. I’m looking forward to a good planting season this year. 🌱
Those overalls are so freakin cute, I need to start sewing!
Oh! I love, love, love those overalls! You go girl.
Just so you know, I think you are fabulous!! I love your podcasts. 😍
I've totally been experiencing the teenager effect of sewing. My clothing and colour and style options have totally exploded. It is quite fun to just try stuff! So far I've discovered I don't like wearing yellow at all, but do love dungarees. Apparently there's a whole aesthetic called toddler chic or toddler granny!
You are my sunshine. ☀️I'm flaring today so I am overjoyed to have a bonus episode! Even got to see Gus! ❤️ Thank you for making today bearable.
Fabulous Amy, those look great on you. I'm not a bigger lady, but I'm one with an eating disorder, that's not comfortable in my body, I've a underactive thyroid. Dungerees for me, even at 55yrs of age, are the one item of clothing that I love to wear. I want some in green courdroy, but there sold out everywhere, so I've resigned myself to the fact that I may have to try and make some. You've certainly given me some ideas as to how these should be made and what to think of. And dyeing some fabric is a fabulous idea. Thankyou xx🤔💕
You look great! Awesome job! Also, this is my favorite episode of all time, and I’ve been here for a long time... 🤣
K, I was about to go get another coffee with you chatting loudly as I went...then I heard you were going to show me how to get them off...had to stay. Coffee #2 can wait for a bit. Thank you! I suppose I could have just paused but I was so engrossed. Great hints!
OMG...How did you know I was pondering Otis overalls but was concerned with extracting myself from them in a hurry!!! Thank you, thank you.
At this moment.......so great and thanks!
I love that you showed how to take them off because it just wasn’t computing in my head 😂
What other educator would give you a tutorial on how to take off your pants!?! As a patron I can say the information and entertainment you provide is worth every penny! And you should totally be advocating for yourself!
Thank you so much, Paige!
What a great make!
FYI, for a great linen pair, I just used Joann’s Hopsack Linen blend in the color “Potting Soil” and it is great stuff- plenty of body, easy to sew (and flat fell) the drape and feel of linen, but a lot fewer creases due to the rayon. I have the black too and plan to make another pair next winter. But the rusty brown color is perfection!
Thank you for the tip!
I love your personality in these overalls, Get er done!
Another option to add elastic would be to make the strap or part of the strap (back few inches) like a hair scrunchie (elastic encased in extra fabric length). This would probably only work on lighter fabric options. Your overalls looked fantastic.
I love seeing Gus!
Thank you for the how to take the pants off demo. I am making a mock-up of these for my daughter and we have only gotten as far as fitting the top half because I couldn't figure out how to get them off once the pants were sewn. Maybe make a short video clip of your demo so others can find it?
I love you! You are amazing! And you have also convinced me to try overalls (as well as a few of their other patterns). Yours are wonderful!
Love the overalls looking forward to making them , I’m going to step out of my comfort zone on this one 🌸❤️
OMG...your overalls are so super cute! The color looks awesome on you. Your light-hearted approach to sharing information/stuff is a breath of fresh air. I am all into learning as much as I can from your tidbits. Just stepping out of my comfort zone now....
Loved this from beginning to end.
I enjoyed this very much. Not only the model, but also the color looks great on you!
Great video! Such great info. Just ordered some cotton rip stop in navy. Can't wait to make these! I need these for gardening season. Thank you!
OMG. You crack me up. I loved the video and the tips on getting your overalls off, especially when your in a hurry. 💕
You are amazing! Thank you for this fabulous video.
Oh I love you so much! Love every word of this post. (Having made nearly 100 of the Dress No 2's I totally relate).
You look fantastic!Love the overall...
Omg I have a permanent grin on my face with the overall demo so so priceless loved it great podcast
You are so very empowering! Thanks so much - I see some overalls in my near future!
OMG!!! I love you... "I have gone mermaid..." just cracked me up. Perfect description!!! Thanks!
those overalls are SO CUTE!!!!
This was super interesting and helpful! I have been on an elastic waist pants kick and overalls sound super comfy and darling. Yours look so perfect on you👍
I don't wear jeans let alone overalls. I don't sew. Yet I'm very impressed with how flattering these are on you. I'm tempted!!
Very informative and helpful-thanks!
Superb! Very helpful, thank you 😊
You are such an influencer! Now I’m looking at overalls everywhere....and I’m not an overall wearer.
I thank you for your lovely, enthusiastic self today. Cute overalls!
... you are such a scream! (that is a good thing) i am thrilled to have found you Happy Days!!! (best wishes NOT the TV program LOL) thank you for the information I am totally going to make these overalls. I will be putting elastic across the middle of my back and then working out the ties from there. Elastic is a great idea. I like the tie under the bust. Very cute.
Omg, criss-cross applesauce, here's how you take your pants off! THIS. This is why I love your videos. It's a belly laugh with a friend 🤪🤣 Thank you, just what I needed!
I so need these
This is beautiful !!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I’ m looking at this video again....... could you make these overalls ( I call them odoralls for some reason.... not that they stink 🤦♀️🤦♀️) reversible ?? I think that would be wonderful .....roll up the hem and there’s a different color or pattern..... !! I’ve found out that if I go up one size in the back when cutting out the waist that it gives me enough “ room” that I don’t have the plumbers crack when I squat !! Lol It will look odd because the back of the pants rise up a quarter ,to half inch higher than the front but fits so much better !
I love your honesty about being fat. I'm fat, too. I also make most of my clothes. I would definitely try using elastic in that back casing. It would be much easier than the ties. AND, if it didn't work, you just take it out and make the ties!!
Thanks for the invite! Back to patreoning !! :)
Thank you so much, Lydia!
Is your pupper a Havanese? He looks a lot like my Hazel who is Havanese. I love the variegated brown coat!
Bonus comment:
When we went to Eskenazi for our second vaccine we stopped at the Kroger in Speedway. The Sumos were delicious. Thank you!
Hooray for citrus and vaccinated humans!
So informative. Thanks so much. Can you dye the elastic to match the overalls?
Theoretically yes? Wide elastics are typically synthetics, and I’ve never died synthetic fibers, so I’m not familiar with the process materials. It would be rad if you.l could just throw it in the dye pot with your fabric, but, dang. (Also, sending hugs!)
You could leave your casing open at the hip edge instead of the center back. I also was thinking elastic tho, or at least the covered part elastic and the outside tails fabric.
Oh my goodness you are absolutely precious Love your giggles 🙏🏻💕🌹Stay safe
So good and I appreciate all the fat-focused tips. I hope that lady finds your demo before she snaps her straps off!
Secret dance party in your pants! Lol
I have loved and worn overalls forever! Short ones long ones denim any and all! I’m 62 and still wear them! I know I don’t look good but I feel cute! 😝😝😝
I 100% bet you look cute!
Love this podcast lots of great information are used to be 250 I am now 130 also chambray is a fabulous material for jeans and for overalls as I am a graduate of FIT in New York I started selling at age 5 apparently I was that drive so I love knitting so much better so good luck and you'll love it in the white cotton it's so easy and comfortable to wear and chambray does come in different colors better than heavy heavy stuff at least on my body my knees used to bleed togetherness 😂😍💕
Punctuation helps, as does capitalizing at the beginning of sentences. This was as difficult as reading Japanese, which uses neither.
I love those overalls. I want painter's overalls without having to make them. Making other stuff. I just checked on line. Women's overalls of the basic kind are twice the price of the men's and don't have the option of selecting the inseam. WTH????? Maybe I will be making them. Sigh. Thank you for a lovely and entertaining video.
Those overalls are Amazing!!!!
Have you considered sewing the Waikerie shirt from Muna and Broad?
It is on the list! I feel like I need an in-person fabric shopping experience for that one, and I don’t have any apparel fabric stores nearby. Have you seen it? Do you have a suggestion?
@@fatsquirrelfibers I was planning on using batik quilters cotton from joann's and a good stiff interfacing for the collar. I also am considering trying to make one that doesn't unbutton with a fake button band, but that is still early in the works 😆
Good Morning ☀️ Amy Beth what’s a front & rear rise? I’m in love with thrift stores and I will be on the lookout for a sewing machine. I think it’s a useful skill to have the capability of making your own clothes. Thank you for always sharing your many makers gifts. Btw I love my first project bag it’s so lovely and you made it. Lovingly, Sunbina Cooley
Thank you for trying out my project bags! I think rise is best explained through images, so I encourage you to use your favorite search engine to look that one up.
Thank You @ Amy Beth!
Vavavoom Amy! 🤩 Thank you for all the tips. Curious if you print out your patterns on the A4 paper or take to print shop?
I typically try to print two or more patterns at a time and use pdfplotting.com. In a pinch, I might pay the ridiculous price at fedex, or, if it is very basic, print and tape.
❤️🤗
I have been missing you, lady! Love my Amy time. Those overalls are too stinking cute on you; make them
in all your fave colors. I am not a sewist; I have sewn doll clothes, thinking the elastic at the side would work.
I don't think it would look bad at all, as a matter of fact, I think it will look like it is supposed to be there. Like
the elastic on a shoe. While you are at it you might as well slap some elastic in the back casing.
xoxo's Sandie

If you edited in a the more you know.... with a shooting star on the pants off portion it would be hysterical. Like it’s a public service announcement.
Wowed 🙉🙊🙈💯👍👍
I just make skirts because of crotch percentage ease. Haha
