Here's the newest addition to my apron collection. I actually made one as a gift for a friend but loved this one so much I made one for myself with the leftover fabric. Yay for yardage. And very exciting for me, as a first-timer to the method, I didn't even use a pattern!
I used this vintage apron from my collection as the "pattern." I just folded it in half on the fold of the cherry print fabric and cut out about 1/2 inch more for a seam allowance. Easy peasy and fun. Now I know why aprons we the go-to project for beginners in Home Ec classes back in the day. It's so rewarding to start and finish a project in just an hour or two.
Back to the kitchen!
