...after Gentleman Farmer's grandmother who made
the little half apron that was my inspiration.
While pretty, I don't find half aprons to be
very useful. I need a full apron to protect my
top from getting soiled! (I wear my aprons
as bibs while I am eating! ;~P ) I took elements from
several of my favorite vintage aprons
and designed Wilma!
I love the little chevrons at the bottom of the lighter
colored panels.
I mimicked the points with an inset on the bib front
and added just a touch of vintage rick~rack to
echo that zig-zag design.
Nice thick ties in the back for a generous bow!
Vintage style fabrics!
Buttons at waist if you want to have straps...
...or can be tied at the neck.
All seams are completely finished off!
An E-Pattern is in the planning stage, too!
