DIY Apron

A girl from my small group recently got married. As a gift for her shower I made her a Ruffle Apron using See Kate Sew's Ruffle Apron pattern. This apron is fun and flirty and comes together quickly.


For the fabric I used this Keepsake Calico Fabric in Swivel Capri and a Kona Cotton in Navy Blue from Joann Fabrics. Unfortunately, I figured out Kona Cotton in Navy is not all the same. After running out mid apron cutting, I ran to the nearest fabric store to me (Hancock Fabric) and bought some more. Came home to discover it is a different shade of navy than the Joann one...oops! 


I omitted the pocket on the front and added a ruffle in between the bodice and skirt seam. I think I need to whip up some more of these for Christmas gifts this year and of course one for myself!
