Do you have a skirt in your closet that you no longer wear. Recycle it into an apron! I found this floral A-line skirt at a thrift store and thought it would make a cute apron. It is tres simple! I’ve attempted a tutorial below. Hope it makes sense. Have fun!
You could also add a pocket or a cute little ruffle at the bottom. I didn’t…yet. I just wanted to show you a simple recycle from skirt to apron. Can’t wait to see your’s.
oh,I love this project!!
Lovely, lovely, cute, cute, cute — I'm a NOVICE seamstress (just learning how to thread a machine – novice!) so I really appreciate teh tutorial & would LOVE to see how you add the ruffle at the bottom – super darling!
SOOOO Cute. I love it.
Cute, cute idea!!!
