Gorgeous. As this video came up in my feed, I am currently making a very similar apron. I have some large vintage linen sheets which belonged to my grandmother and I am using these. It looks pretty similar to yours but I'm doing things slightly differently, with the bib being double, and the waistband/ties (one continuous length) being made of two pieces sewn right sides together. This way, the bottom raw edge of the bib and the gathered raw edge of the skirt can be completely hidden in the waistband seam - likewise the straps at the top of the bib are hidden. I wanted to do it this way because it gives the bib more body, and also, I have worked embroidery (a design of ferns and mushrooms) on the bib, and I want the back of the embroidery to be hidden. The apron itself is finished but I am now working on two square pockets which are also made from two pieces sewn right sides together, each with a different fern embroidery design on it. They will simply be top-stitched around three sides onto the skirt of the apron. Once the first one is finished, I am planning on making a second one, maybe with a floral embroidery design, or possibly decorated with pintucks and lace. This way, I can have one on, and one in the wash! I wear aprons all the time in the kitchen and currently have some striped butcher-type ones. These vintage-style linen aprons are so much prettier and I can't wait to start using them! They will also provide greater coverage than the butcher ones.
@@theknityorker i never get notifs for replies, sorry i didn't reply. i dont have instagram or facebook. i'm thinking of making a long skirt in the same logic as the lower part of this apron.
Cute apron, great video. Thank you. You do a good job of explaining things, that helps a lot. I really enjoyed your video. You are full of enthusiasm and energy.
You have such a cute and fab sense of style! & I Loved the Star Trek sweater you knitted... that was great fun... similar enough to the otiginal to bring an inner smile.
Love this! Can’t wait to make it! Do you have an insta so I can tag you in the finished apron? 😄 Also, can I ask how tall you are, that way I know about how much I should adjust? Thank you in advance!
I appreciate your extra effort in mentioning the measurements particularly.
Such great easy to follow instructions! Can't wait to wear this while I burn everything in the kitchen.
🤣
Lol! Don't burn your apron too!!
Thank you for pressing as you went. It seems like no one does it! It’s a huge must.

Really cute
Looove this and how it turned out!
Love it! Not sure I understood where/how you would have added the ties to the waistband? Me explicas mejor porfa 🙏🏽
This video is old, so I don’t remember exactly but I think I just fold them in half lengthwise and sew the skirt in between the fold.
Ok thank you I think i can imagine how to do it
So beautiful❤

I do! It’s @theknityorker please do tag me? and I’m 5’5 😉
I love your dress!! Where did you get it?? 😍
It’s thrifted, but it was from ModCloth originally
What size is this I am a plus lady
Since it’s self drafted and only instructions, not an actual printer pattern, you could make it for any size.
I have done very similar with Woodglut designs.
