This apron design was one Cynthia (long time Folkwear fan and employee) made from one her grandmother made and wore.  Her grandmother drafted the pattern, offered in a 1900’s woman’s magazine that was borrowed from her mother. This pattern was such a useful favorite that she continued to make and wear it her entire life. Cynthia hardly remembers her not wearing some version of it no matter what she was doing.  This version extends this original pattern to children's sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis apron will make any task a bit more charming.

The two oversized patch pockets can be made with her grandmother’s own addition, a “tissue” pocket. The usefulness of this little pocket needs no explanation, but it is also a great place to store away tiny items for small hands. The deep patch pockets allow for the perfect place to keep all kinds of things handy as you go about the day’s tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Fabrics:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Any light to mid-weight woven fabric such as cotton and linen.

Unfortunately, these buttonholes are NOT marked on the Casing pattern piece K.  Therefore, mark your own buttonholes at center front of the Casing piece as shown in the illustration. Mark them horizontally along the mid-line of the piece and space them about 1\/2 to 5\/8 inch from each other, to leave room for the ribbon drawstring bow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.folkwear.com\/blogs\/news\/how-i-made-223-chemise-into-a-blouse\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRead about how to make a shirt from this pattern (along with fun modifications)\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.folkwear.com\/blogs\/news\/223-a-ladys-chemise-view-a\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRead how to use different lace or eyelet for finishing the neckline and sleeves\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.folkwear.com\/blogs\/news\/how-to-make-french-seams?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=fb7b5c0d3\u0026amp;_ss=r\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eHow to sew French seams\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.folkwear.com\/blogs\/news\/how-to-make-binding-and-front-button-loops-closure?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=5ff5af1e8\u0026amp;_ss=r\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eHow to make bias binding\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lJi2OigZ7lM\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eHow to make lots of bias binding at once (YouTube video)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folkwear","offers":[{"title":"PDF","offer_id":52062273241371,"sku":"000230-001316","price":26.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Printed","offer_id":52062273274139,"sku":"000230-001316-Printed","price":45.5,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1017\/4490\/2427\/files\/replic-223_back_COMP.jpg?v=1776248530"}],"url":"https:\/\/patternpress.co.nz\/collections\/all-products-arranged-by-newest.oembed","provider":"THE PATTERN PRESS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
