The Crafts Channel, just made this for my niece, turned out perfectly!
Excellent, glad it turned out well Christy, c x
Hi 🙋♀️, I love this toddler apron ! I want to make one for my friend’s daughter . I just noticed you are in UK , I am in Canada and we use Letter size North American standard . I think you use A4 paper size . I don’t have that sizing paper here. Is your template using A4?
Many of other RUclipsr have a print scale for us to measure to make sure we both are at the same % in printing.
May I ask you how to adjust your template for North American Letter size?
Thank you 🙏🏻, I truly love your apron and would like to make it for more of my friends who are becoming grandparents and I am heading to baby showers .
@@berniecelee5062 Yes, we do use A4 which is 8.25" x just under 11.25". I think if you ensure the printer is set to 100% it should come out the right size, you might just get a bit missing off the bottom of the page. Are you able to see your friend's daughter in person? It might be an idea to make a rough version from old sheeting to try it on her first before you commit to cutting your decent fabric, c x
Thank you for your very useful & fun creations!!!❤
GREAT TUTORIAL!!!!
Straight to the point with no waffling on about things I don't need to know. Thank you!
Haha, makes a change. I usually talk far too much! c x
Thank you so much! I purchased the pattern / template, but the instructions came from Chinna and were unintelligible. Your video was perfectly clear and helpful. Thank you kindly.
Thank you for this pattern and your instructions! I made this for my 2-year-old granddaughter who we will be visiting next week. Your instructions were easy to follow. I'm very much looking forward to seeing her wear it!
Ah, glad you like it, c x
A big thumbs up and thank you from me! Finally a tutorial that gets straight to the point, is easy to listen to and follow. Thank you so much xo
Ha ha, I'm not usually known for getting straight to the point. I must have had a couple of cups of coffee to focus me that morning!!! c x
I really like how you explained it. It helps me. Thank you
I made this pinny for my 9mth young granddaughter. I am a rusher, (ADHD) and it came out 95% perfect, but because I love it so much, I’m going to find a way to slow myself down, and make it 100% perfect. It truly is an adorable pattern - thank you.
Ahh, so glad you like it, c x
Great little bib easy to make babies need loads of bibs ...
Thank you, I've just made one and its beautiful!
Love love love this pattern.. making a 2nd and 3rd today and tomorrow for my granddaughter.thanks Corinne
Love love love this. Thank you. Love watching you sew! You are a hoot!
Haha, thank you. I aim to entertain 😉 c x
I ordered this pattern & received it fine. I like the little apron. However, the directions that came with the templates, were not clear at all. I could not make sense of the directions. I turned to You Tube and found your video. I know that you are the same lady from whom I received the pattern. The video explained the process so well. I was pleased to see it. It just made it so simple for me to sew it. The problem that I could not figure out from the directions was how to sew the dress & turn it right side out. The video was really informative......not so the written directions that came with the templates. Thank you for the video. 🙂
Hi, I'm not aware that we are selling this pattern so I'm a bit confused. Can you give me some more info as to where you ordered it from please? Thanks, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel By the way, the instructions that came with the templates even have some of your wording from the video. Such as, when you talk about your point turner.
If you will email me privately, I'll help you with whatever information I have. The different sizes on the other web site are all different prices. When you look on the web site I gave you, you will see. So, with shipping charges, I paid $15.97 for this template. I had ordered it on June 3, 2024. Please keep me posted on this.
@@user-jg6bw7ld8s Thank you for the info, this is a concern for me. I don't think we can private message each other on here but if you'd be so kind as to email patterns@craftihive.com with the link to where you bought it we can go from there, c x
Just when I need a new “project “ your tutorials pop up on my feed. I have just finished one & now this!!! Bless you!!! I love your fabric choices ❤❤😊
Thanks so much for an easy way to make a little reversible smock. I’ve been looking for one for ages.
Hi from North Wales, thanks for this I have been looking for this for a while now, I made my granddaughter one this mornings and dropped it for her, both her and her mum loved it. Now I want one for myself. Jane
Glad you like it Jane. I would think an adult sized on would be fairly easy to make as the back pieces are the same basic shape as half the front, just with the extension to the other shoulder, c x
Thank you for the pattern! I sewed one yesterday and it turned out darling! With a friend’s first gbaby arriving soon, this pattern will surely help my fast sewing needs! 😊
i have been looking for this apron and way of making it for over a year , thanks so much for sharing
Thanks so much for this wonderful easy apron pinafore! I made the first one today for my granddaughter and love it - plan to make more!
Brilliant! It's so good to hear that people can actually make the things I demo! c x
This is terrific thank you- I was looking for a toddler pattern like this after seeing it on IG where they wanted over $15 CAD for the pattern. So this is much better.
Thank you!❤
I made this for my granddaughter when she was born 2 years ago. These are her favourite dresses. Mom asked me to please make her so more 2 - 3 years old as Tarah doesn't want to wear anything else by choice....."That Stage" where she gets to dress herself, or else temper tantrums ensure, lol. Thank you for this wonderful pattern and tutorial.
Ah, that's so lovely to hear. Glad she likes them. Hopefully the pattern is simple enough you can keep enlarging it as she grows. I think it should just be a case of lengthening it and making the chest wider, c x
@TheCraftsChannel do you have any tips for how to calculate the increase? I'm looking to make one for my 3 year old as an ice cream parlour costume 😊
I’m new to sewing, and I’m so happy to find you. You are a great teacher, I did not get lost with you. I will make one for my friend who is expecting in May.
Looking forward to learning more from you.
This is exactly what I was looking for - thank you! I typed up the simple instructions for reference too.
Glad you liked it! c x
Thank you so much for the stunning tutorial. Cant wait to make one for my granddaughter 💝
It would be a lifesaver to have actual measurements here instead of going to pdf which some people don’t have. This is the one I would love to make if only I have the measurements.
Your instructions are so concise.
I don't have a printer at home, everything is drafted (several times) by hand. You can see the basic shape of the pieces from the overhead shot (hopefully), and you could possibly recreate it once you know the chest measurement and length you want. Alternatively if you can see the pdf on screen you could try tracing it onto thin paper (as long as it's not a touch screen your viewing it on). Hope this helps, c x
oh my gosh its so so so cute! What a great project for a quick gift, newbie sewing project (young teen even).
thank you for providing the template for download. gluing the 4 sheets together worked out fine for me.
Excellent, glad they work ok Angelika, c x
thank you so much! i love the no nonsense approach!
This is the exact apron that I was hoping to find and I Love how easy Your instructions are and appreciate that You've added the larger sizes on the template as I needed the 24 month size*perfect* Thank You sew (lol) very much for Sharing!
Glad you like it. The pattern itself is really easy to custom size and the same style can be made for adults, c x
Nicely explained, thank you! I usually leave the gap in the bottom edge, but I'll try the side seam next time. But I turn it out using a thin chop stick - then there's no danger of poking the scissors through the corner.
I'm always going through seams, especially when I'm in a hurry! Yes, I left the gap in the side because the bottom was slightly curved and I struggle to fold in the raw edges evenly along a curve, c x
Thank you Corinne for this tutorial .today I have made 3 - just love it!
Merci beaucoup !
Thank you so much for the pattern and tutorial!
Brilliant tutorial thank you. I made one today for 9 month old it's perfect.
Awesome tutorial!!! Love the projects you share!!
Brilliant, thanks for clear instructions
great tutorial and thanks for the pattern!
This is fabulous! Thanks for the pattern!!!
I Love this Thank you so much for sharing the pattern
Our pleasure, c x
Thank you for showing! I will make one for my granddaughter. 👍😻😘
Thanks so much for the templates. Love it
Beautifully done. Thank you so much
Je viens de vous découvrir ! Bonjour Madame, je suis ravie de vos créations, le tablier japonais est adorable, et un grand merci pour le patron gratuit qui aide beaucoup. Je vais vous suivre maintenant. Bonne journée et à bientôt.
Merci, ravie que les idées te plaisent, c x
I made this apron, I printed the pattern, thank you for free, but when I lined it all up, and I checked and double checked, there was a difference of roughly 1 cm between the outer panels and the main body, I lined up the arms and it was "out", so had to trim. In the video the seam allowance you suggest wasn't possible.
I have to say it was such an easy project for an absolute beginner and I love your channel. Thank you.
Glad you were able to make the apron Natalie. My apologies for the pattern being slightly out, it was hand drawn so may have altered when it was turned into a pdf. c x
I'm thinking I would make the 'turning point' around the bottom and enclose it when sewing around all the edges . Great tutorial - thanks :)
Yes you can leave the gap nearly anywhere. I tend to go for a straight edge though to make folding the raw edges in easier, c x
I love this suggestion of yours!
So adorable!
Very nice thanks darling!!! So beautiful😍. From Chile.
Love your video, very well explained, thank you so much.
thank you for the nice and information-rich video! i think if you put the pins perpendicular to the stitches, you are able to sew right across them.
Yes, always mean to do that, always forget to do that!!! c x
Well said! I too wondered why the pins were placed vertically, versus horizontally in the fabric. I do appreciate the time taken to make good content!🙂
Very cute!
Thank you just what I’ve been looking for😉
One of the best tutorials, will make one tomorrow for my granddaughter, perfect to go with shorts for the summer. Do you have other children’s clothes tutorials,
Glad you like it. we've done this one also

Lindíssimo trabalho.👍👍
Muito obrigado, c x
Hola muchas gracias por el patrón gratuito. No tuve problemas para imprimirlo. Soy mala en la costura pero con su gran explicación pude hacer el mandil. No salió tan hermoso como los tuyos pero seguiré practicando.
¡Eso es fantástico! Me alegra que lo hayas disfrutado, c x
I adore this pattern! I've tried to sew this pattern before but couldn't figure out the turning inside out/right side out approach. Stumbled upon yours and it's perfect! One Question though: After the dress has been turned right side out, how do you close the gap? Thank you!
You can slip stitch it closed or just machine stitch it closed after pressing well. I would stitch it with little apron opened up before attaching straps.
Thank you so very much for reaching out!!! I so appreciate you!!!!@@szelop
Have you ever used PUL terry, Polyurethane Laminate Fabric,? It looks like terry cloth on one side and a rubber like on the other side, great for bib and baprons, waterproof. Won't go through to the baby's clothes. It would be great for these.
No, I've not tried that. Sounds perfect though. c x
I really want to make this for my next door neighbours baby as they always shovel the snow on our our front step, but I don’t know how to enlarge the pattern to make it an actual 24 month size. The centre back fold line came out to 26 cm long after printing. The apron back straight side came out to 21 cm. I am not a super experienced sewer, but if I had some tips perhaps I could make the pattern bigger.

I love this VT! Any chance of adult sizes as they would make great beach coverups! 😜
Yes they would. Your best bet would be to draw round a baggy vest top for a basic front shape, make it longer and then adapt it to make the back sections in the same way as the baby template, c x
Just finished making one. It's so cute.... but how do we close the gap for the tuning?
So cute Thankyou
Thank you so much l will make these for charity God bless
Thanks Dear Love Your Channel..Aleta Sneed
Thanl you
Super j aime bcp merci
I printed out the pattern. Made the 24 month old size. It fit an American Girl Doll but slightly longer on her. I think it must have to do with the printing of the pattern. I love the instructions from you, very clear but I think the pattern is possibly off? I was thinking that maybe if the shoulders were made longer it would fit my 1 1/2 year old. I'm stumped.
Oh that's really irritating, sorry. I don't have a printer here to see what's going on for you. Did it definitely print at 100%? Maybe try asking it to print at 125%... c x
@@TheCraftsChannel Thank you, yes at 100%. I just made everything longer on the pattern. I still want to thank you for putting the pattern for download as I would never have been able to make the apron without it. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
I've got a nasty feeling that the pdf template isn't coming out at 100%. I've looked on screen and with it at the right size the folded centre line on the 24month size should be 30.5cm. It sounds like it's coming out too small... c x
Do I need to add a seam allowance to the apron? Ive cut out and made a few, and its only when Ive gone to make another item - cat purse - that I realised that needed a seam allowance adding.
Does the pattern already include the seam allowance or should we add to it?
That is my question, as well!
I wish the pattern printed correctly. The straps got cut off so be sure you adjust the width of the straps before you cut.
I know this is an old video. You really putting pretty sides together wen cutting pattern .? I did figure it out trying with paper I didn’t wanna mess up. Reason I ask is your plain fabric is hard to tell pretty side (front) from inside I love your videos and agree you get to the point but very helpful wen teaching thanx 😀
Yes, I've always cut out the shapes with the right sides together, unless I specifically need to see where a bit of the printed design will fall, c x
could you explain how to put the back piece of the pattern together? I am sitting here trying to do this along with the video, but you don't show how to put the pattern together
Do you mean the printed pattern? It's designed to print out on A4 (UK paper size) and should just line up. If you're printing on an American sized paper you'll need to ensure it's printing at 100% and this might mean some of the line gets missed off. Your best bet is to lay the two sheets on a flat surface and pull apart until you can see where imaginary lines would join up naturally. You'll then have to stick a strip of paper between the sheets so you can hand sketch those imaginary lines to complete the pattern. Sorry if this doesn't make sense, I can't think of any other way to describe it, c x
Love this pattern. Do you add a seam allowance all around?
Yes, except on the fold line, c x
Can you please show how to cut the templates or fabric with the measurement too,tq
Thank you for sharing. What print setting should I print: print actual size or fit to page?
Please show the measurement
How can I adjust the pattern for an older child?
❤
Having a very difficult time printing out your pattern. Only part shows up. Is there another link to pattern? Thank you
This could well be me, but although I have run to video a few times I didn’t see how you closed the gap you leave to turn the pinafore inside out to display the reverse side…I usually just slip stitch these openings but missed how you did that completely 🤔
Sorry, I didn't actually do that because my hand sewing is so cack-handed and really slow when I have to hold it so the camera can see it! I too slip stitch the openings closed, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel Thanks, my hand stitching isn’t great either due to a little arthritis…🙄
P.S. I finished this project yesterday…absolutely love this pattern & will probably make it several times…clear instructions without the stuff I didn’t need to know anyway…well done you…!
@@julietbones446 ah thank you, glad you likes it, c x
❤❤
I have tried downloading the apron and it is missing part of the page. is there anywhere I can find a written pattern?
great video but i sure wish you had ironed it. Great sewing means great ironing
I agree, sometimes I'm mindful of how long I'm taking when filming though so skip the last steps, c x
Do you have pattern for 3 and 4 year old and by chance a doll pattern.
How did you close the opening
I think, from memory, I simply folded in the raw edges and used a very small slip stitch/oversew to close it, c x
Please show how to cut the fabric ,we don't get templates here
Sorry you've not been able to get the templates. They are here if this link works - cdn.sewmag.co.uk/assets/pdfs/mobiusapron.pdf Alternatively you can see the shapes at about 1.10 onwards so that might help, c x
Sorry. Possibly dumb question but 8 couldn't see it anywhere....are the seam allowances included or excluded on the pattern. Bx
I think they're excluded, I tend to make my patterns from thin card, draw round them, and then use the pencil line as a stitching guide, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel ok that helps a lot. My finished piece looked rather small and thin strap wise. Bx
Please where can I buy this pattern for 2 year old 30 lbs..Love it
We don't sell any patterns but if you download the free template you should be able to adjust the size to fit as they're very simple shapes. You just need to check the chest will be wide enough and the armholes not too tight, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel many Thanks to you
nice
Is this long enough for a baby dress ? 9 months
Probably not long enough for a dress, it's more tunic length to be worn with shorts or leggings. You can easily extend the bottom edge of the apron to make it longer, but it will gape at the back unless you maybe add snap fasteners to the overlap, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel thank you!
I have attempted this 3 times, sadly mine do not look as good as yours, but Im ok with that, I have never sewn. I did not see how to close the turning hole,, did I miss it?
It's only practise, and if you've never sewn before I have the greatest admiration for you to have even attempted this. You can close the turning holes by folding in the raw edges of the gap and either topstitching, or handstitching with an oversew stitch, c x
Hermoso tu Trabajo puedes COMPARTIR el molde por favor Gracias es para vender GRACIAS
Gracias. Puede vender si los hace usted mismo. El patrón está aquí ... www.sewmag.co.uk/assets/pdfs/mobiusapron.pdf
How do we close up the opening that we pulled the apron through
Fold in the raw edges, pin, and either over sew by hand or top stitch all along the seam, closing the gap as you do so, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel Thank you …I figured that’s what I should do so as I topstitched I just hit that area too! Turned out so cute…I made two!! Best tutorial on this type of apron!!
@@auntdee9678 That's great! So glad you liked it, c x
How do I adjust for a very ample bust area? In me, not a toddler, LOL.
Ooo, now you're asking! I would imagine that because the back is just a wrap over it should self adjust, but you might want to think about adding a dart to the lower part of the front armhole so it's a better shape and then cutting the back pieces once you've sewn that, so the back armholes are the same depth but lay flat and don't bag. Does this make sense? c x
@@TheCraftsChannel it does make sense, I just cant find a pattern in 3 x size. I will keep looking. Thought about drafting my own pattern, but I am fairly new to sewing clothing. Thank you for your quick response.
@@debrasonner5970 The great thing about this design is that there is no wrong way of doing it. Can you lay on a large piece of paper and get someone to draw round you for a basic draft shape? And then I'd suggest making a rough one from an old duvet cover or something. Cut it bigger than you think and then you can adjust it as you go, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel brilliant idea!!!!! Thank you. I can make it out of muslin or an old sheet.
can you post a women's size patterns and tutorial for these?????
Sorry Taylor, I've had no tuition in pattern grading and as I'm such a weird size I have no idea where to start! I think your best bet would be to draw round a baggy vest top for a basic front shape, make it longer and then adapt it to make the back sections in the same way as the baby template, c x
Could you PLEASE tell me how to order the blue coastal fabric.
I'm really sorry. I think it's discontinued now. I've had it in my cupboard for at least three years, c x
In your pattern, is seam allowance included? I just finished making one n it's the most adorable ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you
From memory I don't think it is. If you look at the demo I think I draw round the template then add 5mm when it's cut out, c x
The Crafts Channel oh!!! I did not add any seam allowance. I cut out for a 9 month old so I think it will fit a 6 month old baby 😊but it's very very pretty.
@@marinadi532 Ohhh... sorry. I always do my templates this way, means I have a pencil line to use as a stitch guide. I do think there are problems with the size the template prints out though, unfortunately I can't check at the moment, c x
@@marinadi532 I've got a nasty feeling that the pdf template isn't coming out at 100%. I've looked on screen and with it at the right size the folded centre line on the 24month size should be 30.5cm. It sounds like it's coming out too small... c x
The Crafts Channel Yes, I thought so too they looked smaller. Especially after I finished stitching it looks like it will fit a 3 month old. The finished length of pinafore for 9 months is 10.5" What is your measurement?
I made one today and even though it is very cute, it seems tiny. I used the template for 24 months. Is the template exact size or should I have cut it larger?
I'm afraid I'm not sure. WFH and don't have a working printer to check for you. The aprons aren't huge but you should be able to see how much the template might need enlarging by measuring the chest area. Sorry I can't be more help at the moment. I did check the 12 month size on a baby at the time of making it, c x

@@TheCraftsChannel That's very helpful. Thank you. I realized after I made the first one that I printed it "Fit to Page." My mistake. I corrected it and made a second apron. Now my granddaughter has a matching apron for her doll. I checked and the 24 month printed PDF measures 29 cm at the folded center. Easy enough to enlarge if needed. This is my new favorite project. Thank you!!!
@@Dar5674 Glad it worked out ok. I remember my mum making me and my doll matching dresses, c x
@@TheCraftsChannel thank you for this, i adjusted my printed pages to fit this measurement
