Here are 2 aprons that I made for my sister and mother-in-law this spring. They were really easy. I just looked at a bunch of vintage aprons and then sketched, on a piece of wrapping paper, a pattern. (I transfer all my patterns on thicker wrapping paper so they last more than one time.) Since it was an apron, it was really easy and I didn't have to worry about it the fit too much. Each apron was a yard of fabric and almost 2 packages of bias tape. Sorry the pictures are so blurry.
I really liked this one, it had the retro feel that was perfect for my mother-in-law.
This on I gathered the bodice and then attached the lower half, covering with bias tape. I used the tape for the ties in the back. If I made this one again I think I would add a bow or flower in the front center and make larger ties in the back.
Oh, Emily! These aprons are darling. You are so talented. Please keep posting. It's so fun to see the amazing things you create. Love ya!
