It was awesome that you also made the second apron. Showing people how to basically make their own patterns from existing clothing. My mom would buy a pair of popular pants for me. Then take them apart and make me 2 or 3 more pairs. She was awesome
I love the two aprons! I thought about putting the opposite colors for the pockets on each side of the apron. I think that it would bring it all together even better!
I loved them both, with the black and white one I would of liked the same pattern, but in the red. After watching this I will start making aprons, as I don’t believe they ever really go out of fashion. What a nice gift they’d make, thank you, you did a beautiful job.
I know I'm late to the party (as usual) but these apron instructions are so easy to follow and understand. Thank you for showing us that we don't always need a pattern to make something nice. They both look great, but I'm a sucker for purple, so yeah, that's my favorite one!
My vote is the one you made from your own yardage. I love your tutorials! You always make me feel as if I can do anything, and that makes me not afraid to try something new. I hate watched many people make videos but you are by far, my absolute favorite! I wish you had taught me many years ago because if you had, I'd be sewing up a storm!!! Keep up the great work!
Donna, I love the black daisy floral print the best! Your quarter circle tip to soften the corners is brilliant. I’m so glad I am subscribed to your channel. Your videos and tutorials are awe inspiring! Thank you!
Made this out of yardage for my first ever sewing project- simply the best and easiest way to explain sewing projects to beginners. Thank you thank you!!!! Came out beautiful
I was starting to wonder as well!! But then I realize Donna makes these projects all within one week, and her son edits the videos for our viewing so image how quickly they get it all done!! It's so crazy that they produce this good of content within such a short amount of time.
Hi Donna. I like the yardage apron best. I want to make this for my 13 yr old granddaughter who is not as big as you or I. So how much yardage is needed for a smaller version?
I've watched a lot of your tutorials. Learned a lot. Love the fabrics you choose. I will make this apron for sure, but I think I'll measure and draw the curved lines on one side then fold fabric in half and cut both sides at once. Saving some time and both sides will be exactly the same.
I loved this video. I liked both aprons. I loved the way you lined them and did not have to have bias tape! Grandma Sue in Central Indiana and Izzi Too
I love the chickens but really like how easy this pattern is I need to make a bunch of aprons for the great grand kids grand kids and matching the kids Donna you are the best thank you
Really Cute! I remember my grandmothers fusing around their kitchens and they always had on aprons of all different colors and patterns. I think I'll continue the tradition and make matching aprons for me and my granddaughter.
I love this apron and how you showed making it from a yard of material. Very easy to follow with your directions that you wrote down. I'm going to give this one a try I really like it. Thanks for showing it . I like the black and white one especially it's very nice, the purple and pink one it's also nice. But my favorite is the black and white.
Hi Donna! I love love love the Riley Blake apron panel!! I am so addicted to Jordan Fabrics tutorials. I’m a big fan of the panel design apron but I must admit the “using your own fabric” make would be just as easy. I love your energetic personality and your clear and precise instructions. Keep the tutorials coming!
Thank you for this video, Donna. I always wanted to know how to make an apron. I’d like to make one with your instructions! Both aprons are pretty - my favorite is the one that you made from your fabric! 🧡
I love how you pinned the apron to the lining and then sewed. I have always cut them both out first, but I'm going to try this way next time! Love the Riley Blake apron panel.
You are such a GOOD TEACHER!!! I love them both. But I prefer the one with the yardage. Smart Lady!! I have shared your tutorial with my friends overseas. Although they do not speak english..... Your tutorials are so details... Language is secondary... thank you for teaching us all.
Как я люблю смотреть ваши сюжеты, любуюсь вами. Вы так все просто объясняете, профессионал своего дела. Я глядя на вас купила машинку и теперь тоже учусь шить своим внучкам одеялки, подушечки, и очень счастлива. Благодарю от души, будьте здоровы, живите долго.
This brought back memories of making an apron when I was in middle school and made one that looks just like these in home ec. My favorite is the black with flowers. I'm so making this with my daughter. Thank you for all your great work Donna. I'm new to quilting so your work has inspired me to do more and how to line up my seam when I need them to.
I made this apron out of my own fabric, it was so easy, your instructions were so easy. Thank you Donna I had never owned an apron until now and I am 70. I have done many of your patterns in my Cancer quilts but what I love the most about you and Matt is you are so generous to give your quilts away. I give all mine away and I was delighted to see you do the same..
Donna, I have missed your smile, as well as your simple and direct tutorials. Please have your son put up a text with something like "snowed under in Grants Pass, but back next week with a fabulous new tutorial" next time. Some of us follow faithfully and were concerned. You are really a treasure. I love the apron from measurements-- I can add longer ties because I am an ample woman. 💕
Oh my goodness🙀! For a person such as myself, just starting to sew, this superbly demonstrated video is phenomenal! I can do this! Thank you sooo much for sharing!
What a fantastic and easy way to add a lining!! I never thought about cutting the lining AFTER sewing it to the outside bodice. Genius! Just found your channel. Just subscribed. Thank you!
Hi Donna I really like both of them. I agree with Sandra Torres your quarter circle tips just awesome / Also Donna I enter the give away contest always and most of the time I am unable to get to the give away you are offering it always goes back to the last one that I entered. Other that that I so appreciate your tutorials and I am learning so much from you. Thank you very much Donna
I am so grateful for your teaching. You are an excellent teacher. I learned your trip around the world quilt method and it was soooo easy! Thank you 🙏🏻
I much prefer the one in your own fabric choice. More freedom of fabric options. I'd like the contrasting fabric for the pockets. Great tutorial video. Thanks!
This is the most useful practical, instructional,,, best tutorial on the web...just sayin. I have made over 20 over the past 3 years and still refer to it!! Thank YOU Jordon Fabrics
Where have you been?!! So glad you are back! Love your tutorials, great as always....I always look forward to watching you! You really are brilliant figuring out all of these measurements for us!! Thank-you again!
This tutorial came at the he perfect time I wanted to make a apron for my daughter for Christmas. Love the one from yardage, this is gonna looked sooo cute in back and white polka dot material!
I found an apron pattern made from a 1940's newspaper template in my grandmother's things. I have many of her aprons and use them for patterns. There was also fabric, and I recognized many of the scraps. I, like she did, wear an apron everyday. It was fun reading the news and ads of the day printed on the newspaper. I have, of course, made a newer, stronger template as the newspaper is quite fragile. Thanks, Jordan, for this tutorial. I like a two-sided apron.
This tutorial also came at the perfect time for me as I have some Thanksgiving fabric I have been wanting to make into an apron but haven't found a pattern yet. This is perfect. Thank you. 😊
Thanks a million for making the two aprons giving us the possibility of learning how to use a panel and the measurements for making one from our stash. This is awesome! 🌺🌸
I LOVED this! Made me so happy to watch someone, who is comfortable with cloth, demo how to rudimentarily cut and then fine tune that cut. My mother was a seamstress....NYC trained! 😊
The fabric apron was my favorite; I want to make the Japanese style apron but not sure where to get a pattern. It would be so pretty in one of your grunge fabrics.
❤ Thanks for a handy pattern! I'd cut out the lining before adding the straps. I'd also add pockets to the reversible lining and add phone sized bib pockets, too. I just love pockets! 😊
Love the purple apron. Your tutorials are the best. You take time and your cameras get all the hard to spots. Keep making these for those of us that really appreciate you!!
When I click on the giveaway link, I fill out my details but when I click to submit it, it comes up with ‘you’re already subscribed to giveaway’ which of course I haven’t! Been doing this for months. Anyone else having the same problem? Love the apron, have saved it to definitely come back to, to make 1 or more 👌🏻
I really like the pinks and purples of the printed panel! I'm so happy that sewing is becoming trendy with the young folks again! I'm taught my children and now my grandchildren the basics of sewing just as my grandmother taught me. It became my passion!
@Catherine charlwood....Oh, that is an excellent idea! I am new to sewing and still don’t have the confidence to grade a pattern. My grandchildren would appreciate their own customized apron when they bake with me☺️
Catherine, For the 2 and 4 yr olds why not get a couple of seasonal cotton dish towels and curve the top and bottom corners. For the neck and waist ties use coordinating ribbon. For the 8 yr old start by using Donna's measurements then reduce the by 1/3 or 1/2 depending on the height of the child. Hope this is useful.
Both are the aprons are very cute; however, I absolutely love the purple with pick accent! Those are my colors. I also love the fact they have pockets and they are reversible! You make them appear easy to make and they're darling!! Thanks for showing how to create them both.....
I hope you get this message. THIS VIDEO IS ONE OF THEE BEST APRON MAKING VIDEOS OF ALL OF YOU TUBE. Thank you!!
I like the one with pockets!
Thank you again and again, Donna! So much fun!!
I would think I had died and gone to heaven if I were in a shop like that with all those wonderful materials!
It was awesome that you also made the second apron. Showing people how to basically make their own patterns from existing clothing. My mom would buy a pair of popular pants for me. Then take them apart and make me 2 or 3 more pairs. She was awesome
I've been watching you for years and never get tired of it. Soft voice and great information. I like both. But prefer yours from yardage
Ditto!
I love the two aprons! I thought about putting the opposite colors for the pockets on each side of the apron. I think that it would bring it all together even better!
WOW!! To have complete access to ANY FABRIC along with everything else in the a fabric store is HEAVEN!!
I loved them both, with the black and white one I would of liked the same pattern, but in the red. After watching this I will start making aprons, as I don’t believe they ever really go out of fashion. What a nice gift they’d make, thank you, you did a beautiful job.
I love the he black Daisy apron the best! My daughter will love it! I have some yellow Daisy print!
I know I'm late to the party (as usual) but these apron instructions are so easy to follow and understand. Thank you for showing us that we don't always need a pattern to make something nice. They both look great, but I'm a sucker for purple, so yeah, that's my favorite one!
Thank you for showing your tutorial. It is easy to follow
Give away
I like the purple chickens better. I love your tutorials. They are very easy to follow.
Hope your Mother's day was relaxing. Have s great day.
My vote is the one you made from your own yardage. I love your tutorials! You always make me feel as if I can do anything, and that makes me not afraid to try something new. I hate watched many people make videos but you are by far, my absolute favorite! I wish you had taught me many years ago because if you had, I'd be sewing up a storm!!! Keep up the great work!
I made this apron last night and love it. I like that you give clear instructions without wasting our time.
Yes!
I love how math-smart Donna is! I show these videos to my 8 year-old granddaughter and she. too, is inspired.
JennyinAlaska Me too!💕
Both are pretty, but the one from yardage speaks to me more. Donna you are the best! you simplify things when explaining.
Love the riley blake apron but I'm very appreciative that you showed us how to do it for ourselves. Thank you.
Love the purple one.
this is very beautiful. I am going to make one for my self and one for my sister.
Donna, I love the black daisy floral print the best! Your quarter circle tip to soften the corners is brilliant. I’m so glad I am subscribed to your channel. Your videos and tutorials are awe inspiring! Thank you!
I like the black daisy print best. They are really nice.
Made this out of yardage for my first ever sewing project- simply the best and easiest way to explain sewing projects to beginners. Thank you thank you!!!! Came out beautiful
Thank God!!! I was actually worried something was wrong. Your tutorials make my week!
I was starting to wonder as well!! But then I realize Donna makes these projects all within one week, and her son edits the videos for our viewing so image how quickly they get it all done!! It's so crazy that they produce this good of content within such a short amount of time.
Rai Rojas same here. I thought I would have to drive to Grand Pass and see if all is well lol
The lining fabric would make a nice pocket on the bib of the yardage apron.
I like the one from yardage best! This is the best tutorial I have ever seen for making an apron! Thank you!
Hi Donna. I like the yardage apron best. I want to make this for my 13 yr old granddaughter who is not as big as you or I. So how much yardage is needed for a smaller version?
Hello, I have another way to make apron with a bag, please visit my channel to see it, it's very easy to do. Thank you!
Visit my channel. Very simple method I have

Best how-to make an apron that I've watched and I've watched he'd at least 25 . Now to pick out my fabric,
I've watched a lot of your tutorials. Learned a lot. Love the fabrics you choose. I will make this apron for sure, but I think I'll measure and draw the curved lines on one side then fold fabric in half and cut both sides at once. Saving some time and both sides will be exactly the same.
EXACTLY how I would do it. 👏
Donna is amazing
I loved this video. I liked both aprons. I loved the way you lined them and did not have to have bias tape!
Grandma Sue in Central Indiana and Izzi Too

I love the chickens but really like how easy this pattern is I need to make a bunch of aprons for the great grand kids grand kids and matching the kids

I love how you pinned the apron to the lining and then sewed. I have always cut them both out first, but I'm going to try this way next time! Love the Riley Blake apron panel.
I liked the two. I think one big pocket across the front would be good too. Thank you for the tutorial it’s really helpful!
You are such a GOOD TEACHER!!! I love them both. But I prefer the one with the yardage. Smart Lady!! I have shared your tutorial with my friends overseas. Although they do not speak english..... Your tutorials are so details... Language is secondary... thank you for teaching us all.
I too like the apron from the yardage best. Simple explanations! Love it !
I think I like the Daisy one. I do love the purple lining on the panel one.

How can I convert to vendor's apron with pockets or zipper pocket??
I love the one you made best!!! You need to make your grand daughter a matching apron!!! Thank you for all the wonderful tutorials!!!!
Yes, a child's size would be great, I have 5 granddaughters and they all love helping in the kitchen.
I really like the purple print better. The contrasting pockets really make it look pretty.
Donna, I have missed your smile, as well as your simple and direct tutorials. Please have your son put up a text with something like "snowed under in Grants Pass, but back next week with a fabulous new tutorial" next time. Some of us follow faithfully and were concerned. You are really a treasure. I love the apron from measurements-- I can add longer ties because I am an ample woman. 💕
MagicHeide Me too
I Agree !! Please let us know if all well, just a quick note !! We all Love YOU Donna !!
Me too!
Copy that!
I love the panel one but really like our choice of fabric for the other one. Wish there was a kid one for 10 years olds.
Oh my goodness🙀! For a person such as myself, just starting to sew, this superbly demonstrated video is phenomenal! I can do this! Thank you sooo much for sharing!
Fantastic aprons Donna, both look great but I am partial to purple as it's my favourite colour.
What a fantastic and easy way to add a lining!! I never thought about cutting the lining AFTER sewing it to the outside bodice. Genius!
Just found your channel. Just subscribed.
Thank you!
I agree! I was confused at first. Then I felt really silly. Why! didn’t I think of that before? Lol
Hi Donna I really like both of them. I agree with Sandra Torres your quarter circle tips just awesome / Also Donna I enter the give away contest always and most of the time I am unable to get to the give away you are offering it always goes back to the last one that I entered. Other that that I so appreciate your tutorials and I am learning so much from you. Thank you very much Donna
Thanks for showing us how to make this “too cute” apron. I am definitely going to try it from yardage. I need a quick gift for my sister in law 💙
I just finished making one from fall fabric and made my pockets in the shape of pumpkins! It was so easy to do. Thanks for a great tutorial.
I love the preprinted apron the best but what a great pattern to stretch your creativity!
I am so grateful for your teaching. You are an excellent teacher. I learned your trip around the world quilt method and it was soooo easy! Thank you 🙏🏻
a really lovely apron pattern - the lining idea just finishes it off so well! Thank you for another wonderful sewing tutorial.
I love the black Daisy one....you just make everything look so dang easy...I just wanna make everything. Thank you Donna.
Love them both. Gives me ideas that aprons can be like golf clothies: make in all fun and wild colours. Great. Jackie
Extremely helpful video. I'm a new sewer and after watching this video, I was able to make an apron in a little over an hour. Thank you
The yardage one is definitely my favorite. You do such a great job!
I much prefer the one in your own fabric choice. More freedom of fabric options. I'd like the contrasting fabric for the pockets. Great tutorial video. Thanks!
I missed you..I actually was also worried that something might be wrong w you or Matt..look for your tutorials about once a week.....you are loved!
This is the most useful practical, instructional,,, best tutorial on the web...just sayin. I have made over 20 over the past 3 years and still refer to it!! Thank YOU Jordon Fabrics
I love them all! The buffalo check is my fav or gingham. Gonna use this pattern for gifts!! Thank you!
As someone who knows nothing about sewing but is interested, this video was super helpful. I love how you showed and explained EVERYTHING. Thank you!
Love the roosters but also the daisies. It’s a tie,,, you always make my day thank you to all the Jordan family Karen-Puyallup,wa
Love this pattern!

Where have you been?!! So glad you are back! Love your tutorials, great as always....I always look forward to watching you! You really are brilliant figuring out all of these measurements for us!! Thank-you again!
I love both of them,but purple is my favourite colour!
This tutorial came at the he perfect time I wanted to make a apron for my daughter for Christmas. Love the one from yardage, this is gonna looked sooo cute in back and white polka dot material!
I love them both! You are such a wonderful teacher!
Yea a tutorial!!! I was going thru withdrawal. Love the way you teach.

How did you know that I wanted to make some aprons? 😉 Perfect timing - thank you! I love the daisy apron.
Thanks a million for making the two aprons giving us the possibility of learning how to use a panel and the measurements for making one from our stash. This is awesome! 🌺🌸
I too was getting worried that something might be wrong it's been a while since it took toriel from you
I LOVED this! Made me so happy to watch someone, who is comfortable with cloth, demo how to rudimentarily cut and then fine tune that cut.
My mother was a seamstress....NYC trained! 😊
When a curve is needed, I usually get a plate, or pot lid, or bowl, etc. from the kitchen and trace the curve.
I have been trying to make an apron for years, this is a great way to learn especially if u cook a lot. This is an amazing tutorial. G
The fabric apron was my favorite; I want to make the Japanese style apron but not sure where to get a pattern. It would be so pretty in one of your grunge fabrics.
What type of quilting system is your quilting machine and computer
😀😀I love them both , oh my God it look so easy when you sewing or quitting, watching your tutorial it's sooo fun
I like them both, but being able to customize them with different fabrics makes it fun! Great tutorial!
I like the Black
The Riley Blake apron looks almost Scandinavian.
❤ Thanks for a handy pattern! I'd cut out the lining before adding the straps. I'd also add pockets to the reversible lining and add phone sized bib pockets, too. I just love pockets! 😊
I loved this tutorial!! You went into so much detail, helps alot! Now I can't wait to try and make one!! I also loved the black Daisy apron ❤️🌼
Both look great. I can't wait to make mine as I selected the most fun fabric with Pin Up Girls... Super fun!
I like the yardage one, thank you for the demo it would make a lovely Christmas present with a nice cookery book, thank you from Shirley Campion U.K
Love the purple apron. Your tutorials are the best. You take time and your cameras get all the hard to spots. Keep making these for those of us that really appreciate you!!

That happens to me also
I really like the pinks and purples of the printed panel! I'm so happy that sewing is becoming trendy with the young folks again! I'm taught my children and now my grandchildren the basics of sewing just as my grandmother taught me. It became my passion!
Brilliant as always. Love the yardage one best. Definitely on my to do list. Thank you for sharing.
Love em both. But the one from yardage is cool. But the chickens are so cute too
TFS-Rebecca
Love this apron, would you be blue to give us a couple of measurements too for children please? Say a 2yr, 5yr and 8yr old child?
Yes please!! 👏👏
@Catherine charlwood....Oh, that is an excellent idea! I am new to sewing and still don’t have the confidence to grade a pattern. My grandchildren would appreciate their own customized apron when they bake with me☺️
Catherine, For the 2 and 4 yr olds why not get a couple of seasonal cotton dish towels and curve the top and bottom corners. For the neck and waist ties use coordinating ribbon. For the 8 yr old start by using Donna's measurements then reduce the by 1/3 or 1/2 depending on the height of the child. Hope this is useful.
I had the same question. Thank you for sharing
Hi Donna, ya know I love your tutorials
Both are the aprons are very cute; however, I absolutely love the purple with pick accent! Those are my colors. I also love the fact they have pockets and they are reversible! You make them appear easy to make and they're darling!! Thanks for showing how to create them both.....
I love your aprons, I can’t decide which I like best as they are equally beautiful
