STEP 1

Hem the apron around the curved line of the edges of the armholes with a double fold hem of ¼ inch (6mm).

STEP 2

Press the raw edges of the sides over by ¼ inch (6mm). Press the edges over again by ¼ inch (6mm). Stitch the side hems.



STEP 3

Make a double-fold hem at the top and bottom of the apron. Press over the raw edge by ¼ inch (6mm). Press over the edge again by ¾ inch (2cm). Stitch across the hems.

STEP 4

STRAPS OF APRON MEASUREMENTS

ADULT STRAPS: NECK AND WAIST TIES

Cut 2 side straps - 30 x 3.5 inches (76x9cm)
Cut 1 neck strap - 25 x 3.5 inches (63.5x 9cm). I found that a 23 inch (58.5cm) strap was comfortable for me but I've added a couple of inches so you can cut it to the size that is best for you.


STEP 5
On the wrong side, attach the straps at the neck and waist.

  • This  is a beginner sewing project, and you will only need basic sewing skills such as straight stiching.
