Rainhaven Overalls - Child
Digital Pattern + Video Class
For adventurous outdoor play, these simple, functional overalls keep children dry and comfortable, whatever the weather. Designed to be pulled on over clothing, Rainhaven Overalls let kids be kids, freely immersing themselves in nature play, with no worries about keeping clothes clean.
The pattern includes optional features such as elastic stirrups to keep pant legs in place, a chest pocket, and knee and seat patches that can be combined to make them your own.
Sew them in waterproof fabric for rainy day adventures, or in a sturdy fabric such as canvas for every-day rough-and-tumble play.
Skill level: adventurous beginner
Make old things new again! Twig & Tale patterns pair wonderfully with upcycled fabrics. Look to large raincoats to upcycle into smaller garments. Re-use hardware such as buckles, toggles, sliders from old raingear or backpacks.

I’m so happy with this pattern, I work outside with children and wanted some fun rain gear like them! I’ve made two pairs so far, one with a fleece lining and the other simply faced.
The pattern was easy to print and follow and they fit like a dream! Great range of sizes as well.
Beautiful pattern, stunniny project. Easy to follow the steps. Once again Twig and tale pattern didn't disappoint. My 2 years old boy loves it because he can go out even in wet day..
I made these overalls for my 12 month olds for playing in the park and garden. The pattern was easy to follow and they turned out exactly as I pictured them. I used PU water resistant fabric and chose the knee and bum patches and I have enough fabric left to make the second set in the reverse colours. The pattern for 12-18 months understandably comes up very big so the girls will have to grow into them - not a problem but something to be aware of if you’re looking for something for a 12 month old.
A really easy pattern to make, suitable for beginners. Made in cotton as a pantomime costume and have had requests from friends as are quite fashionable in bright patterns.
This pattern was perfect for waterproof pants for my granddaughters. I used PUL fabric and lined the pants with fleece for warmth. The stirrups’ option is great for keeping the pants around the ankles, Thanks for a pattern that will be used again.
Ive been eyeing up this pattern since I came across Twig and Tale 😍 i'm still to muster the 'I can do it' energy to try it out though 🙈. I've read through the pattern and the instructions are very clear and easy to understand. The inspiration pictures are fantastic!! I'll update once i've got off my butt and tried it out myself haha
The Softshell is perfect for these overalls, so the kids can play outside in winter without getting their clothes filthy. The pattern was simple for me as an experienced sewist, and with plenty of detail the even someone less experienced should be able to make them.
Love this pattern, made a few mistakes and pocket is wonky lol but that’s all driver error. Pattern was great and easy to follow. Just need to make a pair with stirrups as my grand daughter won’t keep her boots on 🤦♀️😂💜
This pattern is amazing! It fits perfectly on the first try and super easy to follow! Exactly what I needed, now I'm off to buy the adult ones 🙌
Lovely pattern, wonderful instructions & slippery soft shell!
