Pattern Description:
Vogue Vintage Apron

Pattern Sizing:
I cut the size large, in view A

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?

Yes - a very pretty & vintage apron.

Were the instructions easy to follow?

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
If you want a quick apron, this is not it - it has a few additional steps due to the curved & interfaced waistband - but the end result is worth it - I like that the waistband is so attractive. And, the gathers on top of the pockets make them stand open - important for a utility garment.

pocket & waistband detail

I also like the amount of coverage this apron gives, it goes all the way around to the back, with less than 12" open at the back. If you are a messy cook like me, this is good news!

Fabric Used:
I used a heavier quilting cotton, in a loud & beautiful print. I have a lime green kitchen, so this matches & contrasts wonderfully.
