Pattern Description: Flirty half-apron

Pattern Sizing: Measured to fit.

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

Were the instructions easy to follow?Absolutely

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? It is quick and easy. Like all the one yard wonder patterns, it is a great way to highlight some of my the fun fabrics I've fallen in love with and can't figure out what to do with them.

Fabric Used: Coffee Buzz fabric by Andover

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I had 1/2 yards of all the fabrics so I had to make the apron a bit shorter than the pattern called for, but that wasn't a huge deal since I am short anyhow.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes. I love aprons as they make wonderful gifts and you can find such a diverse selection of prints!

Conclusion: This was a kind of "milestone" for me, comparing my previous version of this apron, to this one, I can see that I am actually learning to sew, stitch by stitch!
