You should love your sewing machine and know how it works (we're talking a basic straight stitch here).

*Marking instructions
*76 full color instructional pictures
*BOTH customary unit (yards, inches, etc.) and metric unit (centimeters) measurements

Please note, because of the nature of this item, pattern is not eligible for a refund. However, I do stand by my product. If you should happen to have a problem while sewing this apron, I'm more than happy to help you via emails.

This is a full apron with a square neckline, a dart-fitted top (to curve with your curves) and a slightly gathered skirt. It features a corset style front with metal eyelets and ribbon lacings.

This apron design was tested on a variety of shapes and sizes and would be categorized as a Small/Medium (approximate off the rack dress sizes 2 to 12).

It was made to fit the following measurements:
Bust - Between 30" and 40"
Waist - Between 22" and 33"
Hips - Between 30" and 40"

SKILL LEVEL: Intermediate - It's not a difficult pattern, but the front eyelets can be a little tricky if you've never used them before. Photos and instructions are included to guide you along, but it probably wouldn't be a good first project for a beginner :)

Small/medium (approximate off-the-rack size 2 to 12).

Materials:

1 yard of fabric for skirt/bib/pocket
1 yard accent fabric for ties and pocket/skirt bands.
10 eyelets (1/4 inch size)
2 yards of 3/8 inch wide ribbon
Small piece of fusible interfacing - 3" x 12"

You Will Also Need:

Eyelet tool for attaching eyelets
Thread to match
A good pair of scissors
Sewing pins
A ruler
A marking pen or pencil
A "dull-pointed" object (anything like a crochet hook, a chopstick, a very dull pencil, etc. - This will be used to make nice points at the ends of your neck ties and waist ties).
A straight long skinny object - a 1/2" to 3/4" dowel works best, but if you don't have a dowel you can use a thick crochet hook or even a long handled spoon for turning your ties.
