I found this apron pattern while searching for a gift idea for one of my co-workers. I'm not sure where it came from (or the other Jamie Christina apron pattern) -- perhaps an apron swap.
For some reason, I forgot to take pictures of the apron on my dress form.
Picking the fabric was a bit of a challenge, but I knew that this baking themed fabric was going to be included.
Once I got to work and realized that I had neglected to take photos, I enlisted the aid of a live model. Side one is a strawberry print that I just love. Unfortunately, it's a rather stiff fabric, so a dress was out of the question. It's perfect for this apron though.
Here's side 2. Isn't it cute?
Now about the pattern. It's fiddly at parts and I had to do a good deal of ripping and resewing. The results, in the end, were worth it. I'm planning to give this apron another try just to see if I can get through without so many re-dos. I especially like the elastic going across the top. So cute! Despite heavy use of my seam ripper, I enjoyed working on this apron. I hadn't made one in quite a while, but now I remember why I love making them. I expect to make several more (testing out all of my apron patterns) in the future. I think it will be a good use for some of those novelty fabrics that I just adore.
