Apron

I’ve been buying apron patterns for awhile now, but had yet to make one, until this morning!

Didn’t this turn out cute?  I bought three colorways of fabric last year to make three of these, stuck them in a project box, and promptly forgot about them.

I’m trying to decide if I want to add a pocket or not.  The pattern calls for one, but I never use pockets in my aprons, I wear them simply to save my clothes and to wipe my hands on when I’m covered in flour.

This pattern is by Indygo Junction, “Cook’s Cover-Up IJ733.  I think I will add the pocket, just for a touch of cuteness.

I posted my Tuscan potato soup recipe this morning, as requested.

I went back and added the pocket!

Very cute! I'll have to add this pattern to my collection.

I never use the pockets on my apron but I'd want them if they weren't there. :) Weird. I love aprons and have a growing collection but wear the same 2 over and over.

I love aprons and make a lot of them. I always thought I didn't need pockets too, but they always come in handy. Add the pocket!

I've never gotten into the habit of wearing one. They are cute, but I get so hot when I'm cooking I don't want any more on than necessary. I always cook in the grungies and then change before guest arrive. Cute apron, though. Pockets are good.

I never wear an apron. Not that I cook that much. I have a cute Christmas apron (the only one I have), but don't ever think to put it on. I need to make it a New Year's Resolution to make some and wear them (in other words--cook more). lol

Love aprons but they don't do me too much good. I always seem to wipe my hands on my seat and it would take far too much fabric to reach all the way around there.
What do you use to trace the pattern? I've used patternease but it's not available here where I've moved recently.

I do love that pattern you used. I've collected a number of them myself.
