Butchers Apron

With baking season just around the corner I thought I would share one of my favorite aprons to make.  I like it because it is very fast and easy to make and it has lots of coverage especially for us messing bakers!  The pattern for this apron is in French General's Home Sewn book.  I absolutely love this book it has so many nice patterns for the home.  I like buying books like this because they have more bang for your buck. And lots of inspiration!

Here is a peek at the page with the aprons I made. 

This one is similar to the one in the book. 
It also has a nice big pocket in the front.
This apron I shorted up and left off the pocket.

  10. Hi Paula, I’m Anne from Life on the Funny Farm (http://annesfunnyfarm.blogspot.com), and I’m visiting from Farmgirl Friday.

    I think aprons make such great gifts. I love the one you showed that's blue stripes, very pretty. I once saw (prob on Pinterest) where someone rooled up an apron and put i inside a mason jar, and attached a recipe card. Love it!

    Anyway, thanks for posting this. I hope you can pop by my blog sometime to say hi…
