A Simple Apron

It has been really busy at the Huzl house since the new year.  I did, however, find some time to make four aprons and sleep pants.  First, the apron.  You won't believe that I found the material at Walmart.  I really liked the way the brown border matched the print.  I found this simple apron pattern  at Auntie's Attic in Niagara Falls, NY.  It's across from the Outlet Malls.  First and foremost, I washed the fabric and ironed it without starch or steam.  Then, I measured and cut all the material.  The longest part of the project was making the straps.  I personally like to use a dowl to invert the fabric, and then iron it down to keep its form.  Once all of the pieces are ready, It took literally 15 minutes to sew it together.
