The Design: The Overalls are our most technical design to date. We double stitch all of the seams on this garment to give some extra strength to the construction. The design is a high-rise pant, with a straight loose leg. The front bib has an outer pocket and brass hardware. There is a functioning fly on the pants, two deep side pockets and easy snap brass buttons on both sides for easy in and out. You are going to wear these A LOT!
The Textile: This quilt is made using pretty, old cotton fabrics from the 1950's -1960's. The quilt top was sewn on a home sewing machine with hand stitched binding all around in excellent condition. The blanket is quilted using the hand-tie technique with variegated green cotton thread. The back of the quilt is soft matching rust colored cotton fabric. It is thin and would make a comfortable garment.
We make each pair of overalls using repurposed vintage quilts that we source from textile waste centers across Texas. Quilts are updated as often as we find suitable pieces to be transformed. Each piece of clothing we make uses vintage material, so there may be “imperfections” in the form of mended areas, patches & distressing.
How it works: Choose a quilt from our collection and select your size. The specific measurements of each size are located in our size chart above. If you wish to have your piece tailored beyond our given design, (ex: sleeve length, jacket length, or other special requests) please contact us via email. Howdy@psychicoutlaw.com
Made To Order: These overalls are crafted especially for you. Please choose your size and style thoughtfully. We do not offer returns on these one of a kind creations. We want each quilt to be respectfully invested in before we cut into it. The time and love poured into each piece is time consuming and a work of art, as we revive these historic quilts into wearable clothing. Reach out to us if you have any questions - we are real and nice humans who love to see these quilts turn into something cherished once again.
Eco-Bonus: We would love to further upcycle the scrap pieces from this chosen quilt into matching accessories like pet bandanas, baby jackets, totes & more! Click here to visit the Upcycle Shop.
Please allow 3-5 weeks for us to create your overalls (not including shipping or embroidery time).
