Another Cobbler Apron: Advance 5998


One last sewing project this week--a cobbler's apron for Clara to match Daisy's dress. Same floral, same red binding. I've used this pattern before, but this time I cut out the wider neckline: "poncho" style, the pattern terms it.


Clara loves wearing these all day over a crisp white blouse.

  5. I love this apron and Clara you wear it very well.
    I would love to have this apron to wear while I sew to
    keep the notions in the pockets.
    Daisy's apron earlier this week and Clara's today
    have brought back good memories of the first dress
    I ever made at age 12. A dress that had this samenk
    pocket effect all the way across and was very cute.
    than was a long long time ago.
    Happy Sewing! :)

  6. Wow, you are such a talented lady. God has for sure blessed you with the gift of sewing, if only I could follow a pattern!

  7. Ohhh! Me too, me too! I want one! How much more exciiting than just a usual apron.

  8. Make one in green and I'd buy it in a heart beat at your Etsy store. I've been looking forever for an apron that actually covers my entire front instead of only 6 inches of the middle. (And has pockets.) Even my vintage one from Grandma doesn't cover up my entire top.

  11. What a nice verstile pattern for your children. Honestly, such a touch of the old with the new and you complete the projects so well.

  12. These are my favorite kind of aprons! I have one in particular that I use for my clothespins. It has saved me a ton of time having the pins right there in those pockets.
