Thanks, Greg |

What height is the person and what style of sleeve (set-in, dolman,
raglan) are you using? Greg wrote: Could anyone guess the range of yards(@60") would be needed for XLG coveralls??? Thanks, Greg -- I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much. - Mother Teresa |

"Greg" wrote in message om... Could anyone guess the range of yards(@60") would be needed for XLG coveralls? A maximum of twice the length is my guess. You'll be able to fit the sleeves and facings in somewhere, probably at the side of the leg. HTH -- Sally Holmes Wakefield, West Yorkshire England |

My daughter is an XL type size, and I drafted her an coverall pattern in PMB and then went to the yardage calculator, and the sleeve would not fit and had to be placed separately. My guess would be 2x the total shoulder-to-hem-plus-hem-allowance plus length of sleeve, then round up to the next quarter-yard. But of course, the OP could always take the patterns pieces to the fabric store and lay them out on the fabric. We have no idea if the fabric is one-way or what. -- I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much. - Mother Teresa |

Do you know how tall the person is that the overalls need to be made of and what the sleeve looks like? -- I know God will not give me anything I can't handle.
