In reply to Birgit. Double fabric would be cool…..actually a little heavy so make it out of lighter cotton. Yes just cut 2 except for the pocket and you’re good to go.

In reply to Patty. I made an apron as per instructions, but would like to try with double fabric or lining. How would you add a matching lining? Cut out two patterns and sew them right sides together and turn them after?

I had been looking at this style of apron for awhile but couldn’t find my size in a material that I liked. Viola…XL in a nice linen blend! I have not sewn for quite awhile so the simplicity was helpful to get me back in the groove and remind me of the nuances of my old Simpsons machine! Thanks so much for the pattern and getting me back in the groove. Now to find a pair pattern for balloon crop pants with some inserts. I’ll leave a photo if I can

Thanks so much for this wonderful pattern! I have been looking for this style for a long time. I used a heavier material like duck plaid so it is the same on both sides and it is stiff but I think with washing it will soften up. I made a medium but think I could have made a large due to heaviness of fabric. I also want to make one for gardening and love the loop and carbonator ideas to hang tools. I also like to have my cell phone in a pocket while gardening that is deep enough so it doesn’t fall out when you bend over. Thank you so much for designing this plus making it FREE.

In reply to Betty. I had the same problem with the first time I printed the pattern. My apron turned out child size. I went back in to my computer and did a thorough check of the print set up, did some adjustments so that I could clearly see the full page and the border in each page preview and reprinted. The result was perfect.

In reply to Betty. This is exactly what happened with me. I, too, don't know where I went wrong. Can anyone explain this? Please and thanks! Thanks so much for this lovely free pattern.

Thanks sooo much for this pattern. It is such an easy make and I’m so happy with my apron. I’ll be making many more.

In reply to Emily. Aside from stocking, small projects and a dress for my daughter's 1st birthday, this was one of my first big sewing projects. The steps are easy to understand, and I learned a lot! Thank you!

In reply to Patty. Sewing a lining is a brilliant idea. I would rather do that than deal with that much bias tape. Thanksfor sharing your idea.

I don’t know what I did when I put my pattern together but the straps don’t seem to be long enough. The front neckline was way to high. Do you think I can correct this? Could I make an extension to the straps? I’m sure it’s not your fault as everyone else loves the pattern.
