Inspired by
Betz White's old jeans apron, I decided to try it for myself. Had I set out to make this all at once it probably would've taken me an hour but my toddlers and my attention span will not allow this. Therefore, this project took me a few weeks of working on it off and on not to mention that I had to make a run to the fabric store to grab some
Steam-A-Seam 2. The fabric is leftover from the purse I made myself, the appliques are just cut out of the same fabric and attached with the Steam-A-Seam fusible webbing...which is the coolest thing ever to attach appliques! And while I can't necessarily wear this little creation comfortably right now (due to the ever-expanding baby belly) I can't wait to use it!
Pinning the fabric at the top yoke to get rid of the bulk:
I accidentally cut the waistband on either side so I zig-zagged the heck out of the waistband to reattach it!
The finished product with pink ric-rac at the bottom, serged edges (courtesy of my mom's serger), appliques and added fabric ties:
