Vintage Look Gingham Apron

A half apron with gingham and lace

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/vintage-look-gingham-apron • Posted by Fifi

After getting inspiration from a vintage apron pattern, I created 2 aprons for gifts. The first I made from black and red gingham with trims of lace, skull ribbon and mismatched buttons. The second I made from pale blue gingham and pre gathered lace, with brodier anglaise for the sash. This apron is fully lined. I only gathered above the pockets and left the front flat - its more flattering that way. The pattern I made is just a 1/4 circle, with long pieces cut for the gathered hem. The pockets? I made from tracing around my hand.
