Autumn Apron

After finishing the pumpkin print pullover dress last week, I thought it would be fun to make an apron to layer over it.  I had some autumn harvest themed print fabric—it had been in Mom's stash, and not a print I might have chosen on my own, since it's heavy on browns and oranges.  It does have a lot of sagey blue green, which happens to match well with one of the things I'd gotten recently from Deb's Lace, and which I'd almost (when calling the color "verdigris") used on the copper print pumpkin dress, but figured it would be too fussy.

Well, what's better than a fussy apron, eh? 

 

I mean, yeah, it could be fussier.  It could also be less prone to showing stains, but, honestly, if I ever wear this while cooking, I'd...probably wear my usual apron over it...

An Apron Years in the Making

I thrifted the cloth years ago and got the pattern years ago and bought a bias tape maker years ago and got one of those sewing machine presser feet to help apply bias tape years ago and cut out the pattern pieces years ago

and let it all sit. For years.

I finally decided I would finally make it, view C of Simplicity 8904

Only, of course, I had to make some changes.
