Per all your requests here are the aprons I made.

They are just simple aprons nothing fancy, smaller pocket
up top with a narrow slot for a pen or whatever, a larger pocket
on bottom with 2 narrow slots at the middle.

I line my fabric with premium cotton muslin so that they are
more stable and will hold up better.

For the neck strap I used my kam snaps and made it so that
they can be adjusted.

First picture is of the half apron.

The thing that amazed me the most was how it was snowing on Sunday
and still in the afternoon it got busy at the bird expo.

I wear a quilting apron for my longarm business. It stays on me most of the time. I can go braless and I love it. It also came in handy when my jean zipper broke yesterday LOL. Do they still have those apron patterns that cover up some of the shoulder/sleeve area? I think I want to make one of those for when I'm doing dishes and already dressed to go out the door.

Please post pics. I have been accused of wearing aprons to bed! I wear one all the time.

My husband's grandmother was buried with her apron on. I never saw her without one.

If I am thinking right those were called cobbler aprons.......must be a pattern somewhere.
