thrums

I have a friend who is wheel-chair bound and has very limited mobility. During the winter months she uses fleece aprons which help keep here warm as well as providing modesty covering. She uses a pillowed tray in her lap to support one arm and to hold her tablet and telephone.

My friend has asked me to make her some lighter weight aprons for the summer months. I'd like to make them out of a fabric with a high percentage of cotton so they will breathe well. They need to be easy to wash also.

What weight of cotton fabric would you suggest?

Thanks so much.
