👶 Kids Dungarees — PDF Sewing Pattern
9 sizes, 6 months to 10 years · Bib front with button straps · Turn-up cuffs · Illustrated step-by-step tutorial · A4, US Letter and A0 · Layered files
Every pattern says beginner friendly. Here is the part that actually makes it true.
The files are layered, which means you print your size and only your size. No sheet covered in nine sets of overlapping lines, no tracing, no counting dashes to work out which one is the 3Y. You open the file, switch on the size you need, and print a clean outline. If you have ever cut the wrong line on a PDF pattern — and most people have, once — that is the thing this removes.
The garment itself is as straightforward as a garment gets. No zip. No sleeves to set in. No fitted waist. A bib, two straps, two buttons, straight side seams and turn-up cuffs. The one real skill it asks for is a buttonhole, and there are only two of them.
Nine sizes take it from a baby who has just started sitting up to a ten-year-old, so the file outlasts the child. Sew it again for the next one, or two at once in different sizes.

📥 Instant Download
This is a digital PDF sewing pattern. Nothing physical will be shipped. Your files are available to download immediately after purchase.
📌 Please Note
Sew the buttons on securely. On the smallest sizes, consider replacing them with snaps — a loose button on a garment worn by a baby or a young toddler is a choking hazard.
Print at 100% or Actual Size — never Fit to Page — or your sizes will not come out correctly. Colours may look slightly different from one screen to another. This listing is for the pattern only, not finished dungarees.
