Espeically for baking cupcakes!
I have begun an obsession with baking so decided to make an apron. I used 2 old skirts for this. It is hand sewn because I don't own a sewing machine.
On the pocket there is a cupcake, a spoon, a bag of sugar (it says sugar it's just too little), a baking tray and a bowl. I always free hand embroidery too.
It took me several days to make this so I've not put a time.

Step 1
Cut out peices from the old skirts. I used 8 rectangles for the apron part, 3 long and thin rectangles for the strap, 1 long and very thin rectangle for the strap tie and 1 rectangle for the pocket.
-
Step 2
Attach all the pieces together, using pins to keep all the pieces in place, by creating seams.
-
Step 3
Sew 4 rectangles together in a row, then the next 4 then sew the 8 together. Sew seams all around the 8 peices. When you get to the top remember to sew on the strap and strap tie on either side.

Step 4
Embroider a pattern onto the pocket and sew the pocket onto the apron. It's easier if you sew a seam on the top of the pocket and then sew it onto the apron. Done!
