Does anyone recognize this apron pattern?
 
I am looking for an apron pattern like the one being sold below:

I like the double layer of ruffles and the sweetheart neckline.

I just don't want the wolf or the pricetag!

Anyone recognize this pattern?
Thanks much in advance

You could start with this and experiment.

Simplicity pattern 3989 would give you the sweetheart top, but you'd have to play with the bottom.

Pattern 8316 also has a sweetheart top and the skirt for the Alice in Wonderland looks pretty similar with the layers. http://www.simplicity.com/simplicity...6.html#start=1

I think the "V" portion may be a customized thing, haven't seen any pattern with it included on top of the ruffles.

That's not an "apron", that's a costume! Fishnet stockings comes to mind........golly if I wore that as my apron, it would be a hot mess in no time! Unless, maybe if I was serving tea and crumpets to the "queen".... Just kidding! It's very fancy....looks like it takes lots of ironing and starching to keep that shape.....

It appears to be made from a costume pattern for a french maids outfit. You might want to check e-bay for a cheap french maids costume and use it for a pattern.

I think these might work.

I agree, this isn't anything I would wear. My gosh. LOL....but it was a request and somehow I haven't learned the word 'No' very fluently yet.

I'll keep y'all posted!
Thanks!

I think this is a terribly cute "apron". It might be a fun gift for a wedding shower. It is stunning although I'm not sure about the wolf. But who knows?! I sure hope you find a pattern and share the end result. Good luck!

The wolf is the sigil for the Stark family in the Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones series. Fans of the tv show would catch it right away, and maybe fans of the book, but if you don't watch/read the series, you probably wouldn't recognize it.
