Default An Irish Apron

Well, I promised to show and tell my vintage apron to one of the gals on here. I have this one picture taken so I thought I would at least share it here on the board. It is for my sister who loves her irish heritage. I will drive it over today to surprise her. I only hope she likes it. I altered the pattern to be much shorter than it was originally. She likes short aprons.

Here is the one I made for my mother in law. This is the original pattern design with the flounce on the bottom.

And this one is for me. A reversable one because I am a messy cook, LOL!

Both of these are great. I am sure your mom and sister will/do love them. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much everyone! I really enjoyed making them and I plan on making a few more for gifts. I wear my cutsie aprons. Why not? I have a few that I also share when I have company in the kitchen cooking and baking. It is fun and feels like a special day wearing them no matter what the day.

The first two were made with a pattern called, " 1930's Flounce Apron", pattern by Timeless Pattern Reproductions.
The last one is a pattern by Rebecca Ruth Designs called the Verna apron. I love it in the thirties fabric I found on ebay.
