This nifty pic came from the following web site: http://vikeats.com/2009/08/aprons-yay-or-nay/
I have to say that I do have an apron and forget that I have it from time to time. To be honest I love my apron...but what kind do you like and how can you make your own...not a problem. I am putting up a bunch of links to different types of aprons so you can get the patterns for the ones you like and happy stitching!

http://sewing.about.com/od/aprons/ss/retroruffleapron.htm - Very old timey pattern.
The great thing about these patterns is that 1)they are free, 2) They encourage you to use scraps, and 3) most cooks love aprons and they make great christmas presents. So get the fabric, and machine going and fun picking any one of these if not all these patterns.

you have a nice apron pattern. it's really cute like the bib apron pattern, it's so clear to understand, and very cute designs.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for commenting Apron Suppliers, I'm glad you liked the links so much and I do like a good half/bib apron myself.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeletethanks for the post! I tried to enter the first link, the one from the image, but apparently the link is not longer there... do you have the pattern?
Thanks again!
