Summer Barbecues, Father's Day, birthday gifts, what ever your reason an apron is always useful! Free, full directions here. |
Prepare fabric and bias tape as described in the Cutting Directions
Assembly Instruction
 |
Turn under 1/4" of the top edge (wrong sides together).
Press the facing towards the body of the apron (wrong sides together) Top stitch the facing to the body of the apron. I used thread to compliment the bias tape and a stretch stitch to accentuate the stitches. |
If you want a pocket, now is time to add the Optional pocket
Turn the straight sides of the apron under 1/4" and 1/4" again to enclose the raw edge.
Top stitch the side hems.
If you would like to make the neckline adjustable refer to the adjustable neckline directions
For a simple neckline as pictured here:
Find the center of your pressed bias tape.
Measure 11" down from the center and place the slanted, arm area of the apron inside the bias tape. Pin into place. Repeat for the other side.
Stitch the bias tape closed and enclose the raw edges of the apron with the bias tape.
If you have not added the optional pocket, press under 1/4" on the bottom of the apron (wrong sides together). Press up 1" for the hem and stitch in to place.
