I ended up finding a pattern with another designer ( peek a boo pattern shop) and they look great.I tried to upload a picture but it isn’t working. I think I might try a skirt-overall dress using the sailboat skirt as avocet though!

Has anyone made overalls out of an Oliver + S pattern? I am looking to make some for my 6 year old daughter. If not- any suggestions on good patterns? thanks!
