Bib Overalls for a boy!

My grandson requested bib overalls. The best pattern I could find was Burda 9609.

It was fun to sew but had lots of topstitching. Burda instructions are not easy to follow, at least for me, so I puzzled a bit from time to time, but all in all, it was quite easy. I decided not to do buttons on the side as I figured he wouldn't want to button two buttons on each side as well as the strap buttons each time, so I just did a velcro tab on each side.

I really like the way the knees were done, with little darts on each side of the knee, making it easy for a little boy to stoop down and play.
