...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 lightercolored 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!

That is gorgeous!!! I love aprons and have some patterns that I am hoping to one day conquer and sew. Maybe with lots of practice mine can be half as nice as yours.

My dear friend what a blessing you are to share this...I have been wanting to sew more aprons, but I did not know which one.
Yours is just lovely!

That is such a beautiful apron. I do love the "chevron" design on the bottom. I just can't wait to get sewing again... we're working on getting our home back in shape, so I hope it won't be long now.
Thanks you for sharing your projects with us!
