      To correct your straps...you can detach and reattach in a crossover in the back if there's enough fabric...or detach from the front and use a coordinating fabric to lengten your straps to make it look intentional and cross them over...or you can add a strap between the two straps...you'd have to pull it over your head, but a strap about bra-strap height is a cute fix and you can seam rip your straps and hide the ends inside so it looks original and intentional...just a couple thoughts

    We made this style apron back in 7th grade home ec class. Yes I'm that old, lol. We didn't cut anything, we measured and ripped the pieces. Imagine 25 kids ripping the heck out of cotton fabrics at the same time. And tons of threads all over everything.

    I made an apron inspired by this same listing last year! It really is so cute and I wear it daily. I'm definitely going to make more!

    I too am... Borrowing a pattern I saw online but I was stuck on how to get the upper part attached to the waistband in a way that looked finished. Thank you for this video!! You got me unstuck so I can finally enjoy my apron! My "perfectionist goblin" was getting agitated and holding me up. Also thank you for the term "perfectionist goblin" 😂 she will forever be referred to as such from here on out, for the rest of my life! 😂

    You could see in a little strap across the back from one strap to the other. Just a thought. Came out so cute!

    I have been looking for a tutorial for an apron and this is perfect! I can’t wait to try it. I’m an amateur at sewing but I dream of making my own dresses some day. Thank you!❤

    Your apron is very beautiful, and your work is well done. Furthermore, it fits you very well. Me too, although I am a man, I like wearing such aprons especially cross-back aprons without ruffles or anything like that, simple cross-back aprons.

    I cannot like this video enough times.
    I like exactly how you did it.
    And I'm making that.
    I love aprons and I think wearing an apron looks very chic and I think when you're working in the yard or doing anything dirty in the kitchen that it's nice to have an apron on and I think that apron turned out beautifully.
    Just well done Missy.
    I also hate cutting out the fabric.

    Love this! I wonder if the straps would fall off the shoulders if they were crossed over each other on the back.

    It's really nice design and great explaining thanks. I'm a beginner but I'm going to attempt it :). Did you also make the dress underneath? How did you make that as it's a great combo :)

    • @OutfitRepeater

    I Absolutely Love this apron! How much fabric did it actually take to make? It looks better without the fringe just sayin.

    • @OutfitRepeater
      @OutfitRepeater  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I want to say about 2 yards; I used a queen sized flat sheet and had a lot left over

  • @allisonnadine1537
    @allisonnadine1537 ปีที่แล้ว

    How did you space out & attach the pockets? I’m trying to figure out how to place them in a way where they won’t flatten my gather too much but not pucker a ton either. Just really stumped on attaching the pockets. And how far down did you put them from the waistband?

    • @OutfitRepeater
      @OutfitRepeater  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      honestly I just kind of took a guess, pinned them, held it up against my waist to see if I liked the placement, then went for it haha. Trial and error

    • @OutfitRepeater
      @OutfitRepeater  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! I actually don’t know the fibre content since it was a thrifted bedsheet… but my guess is some kind of cotton blend (like less than 50 percent)

    Do you know how much fabric this took to make by chance?

    • @OutfitRepeater
      @OutfitRepeater  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think it was a queen size bedsheet? So maybe between 2.5-3 yards? You might be able to do 2 yards with a shorter skirt :)
