Sussex Seamstress – Denton Dungarees – Adult – Dressmaking Pattern – Size 6-30

Perfect for beginners, with no zips, buttonholes or tricky hardware, the Denton Dungarees are a wardrobe staple that’s easy to sew and customise. The work-wear inspired look prioritises comfort and utility, but offers lots of scope for creativity and fun. You could go for a classic denim, a breezy linen, or a bold printed canvas. Even a plain denim can be jazzed up with some contrasting patch pockets – dead easy even for a beginner, and that big bib pocket is just begging for a gorgeous print.

The simple tie shoulder straps make adjusting the fit a breeze and add a charming, homemade detail; while more experienced sewers can easily adapt the pattern to whatever hardware details they desire. The high back design provides a secure fit and clean silhouette from behind, and from a practical point of view, you have pockets galore, with plenty of room for your phone, keys and snacks.

And because everything is cuter in miniature, we also have a Kids Denton Dungarees pattern available. These are great for durable playwear, as well as the mini-me photo opportunities. The adjustable tie straps also leave some room to adjust as they grow. The instructions are the same for both patterns, it really is an adorable mini version!
