I’ve been wanting to make an apron too keep on the tailors dummy that hubby got me for Xmas……well since Xmas! It stands in the dining/sewing area of the front room so deserves something gorgeous to wear
I found the most perfect fabric on eBay, Makower “cotton reels”
After lots of fabric cutting & a fair few ruffles made…
…a bit more ruffle making (gathering by hand rather than with the machine as seems more reliable)…
All done, great therapy on a rainy Sunday when I’m full of cold.
Look at the cute double pocket…
I love the cross over front…
…the bows really cu
No more naked dummy!

Lovely apron. Looks great on the dummy
Lovely apron! Looks like a lovely addition to your living room!
I love it! What adorable fabric and so perfect for the sewing dummy! 🙂
I love it! I want to make one 🙂
Seriously, that double pocket is amazing! I love it! I will have to find a project to incorporate this into.
Yes it’s a nice detail although ( and I ALWAYS make a mistake…) the bottom Coker should have had a frill around it, stupidly I even cut the fabric for it! Doh! Oh well it came out ok in end
It looks great! I love that you dress ‘her’ up!
Love the fabric 🙂
Isn’t it lovely? I absolutely adore Makower & it’s a British company which is even better x
Ooooh! I really like the ruffles on the pocket tops…makes it easy to find the pocket without looking!
Very elegant apron. Great fabric choice and very neatly made ruffles.
