I was immediately attracted to this garment, but I knew I wouldn't wear it. My best friend's eyes lit up when I said i was contemplating making this. So... As an experienced quilter, and a novice garment maker, I had difficulties with fashioning the pocket opening on one side only. Otherwise, I give this a solid 2 thumbs up and would make more if there was a demand.
Overland Cloak Sewing Pattern - Adult

So many options to personalize!
I loved making this pattern because of the very clear instructions, which included photographs to show each step visually. The pattern included options for two different hoods or a collar and no hood, and instructions for doing loops and buttons/toggles, or buttons and buttonholes. It also showed photos of the various ways other people have sewn up the coat for inspiration. It didn't take long to sew up, and it turned out so cute!

Repurposed Dad’s Old Coveralls
I used my husband’s old coveralls that he used to wear to work. I decided to use contrasting thread so you could clearly see what was original to the coveralls and what is newly stitched. I even sewed his old name tag on the inside of the pocket. I used the chest pockets on the coveralls for the seat patches so there’s now pockets on the back of the rainhavens as well. They’re not water proof, but they can get dirty and no one will care. I made them gender neutral so they can be hand-me-downs.
The pattern was great and they sewed up quick! I hope to make another pair with cuter fabric. And I’ll have to get the adult version for myself!!
Gorgeous vest which made up really well. I haven’t sewed children’s clothes for many years and the instructions were so helpful. I was a bit to eager and made the vest with the hood and the collar haha but still looks cute 😊

Excellent pattern, easy to put together
I am a beginner and I found this pattern easy to put together and the instructions very clear. I made a lion coat with the animal add on and it turned out great!
