Easy Kids Apron
For this easy kids apron you will need:
- 2 ½ yards or 90 inches of wide double fold bias tape
Wash your dishtowel in the laundry before
sewing.
Lay your dishtowel flat and fold in half lengthwise.
Measure 10 inches from the top and place a pin or use a pencil to
mark the spot. Now measure 4 inches from the folded edge. Pin or use a pencil to
mark this spot. Cut a straight line through the towel from one pin to the other
pin.
Back to Lesson Plans Unfold and lay open. Fold your bias tape in half meeting the ends
together. This will help you find the very middle of the tape. Measure 6 inches
down from the middle and pin on each side.
Make sure this will be long enough or not too long to go around
the neck. This is how you use bias tape
one side should be on one side of the towel and the other side of
the bias tape should be on the back side of the towel.
Continue pinning along sides of apron. Starting at one end of the
bias tape sew together. Either hand sew with a straight running stitch along
the edges of the tape, or sew using the sewing machine.
Remove pins as
you sew along. Tie a knot in the bias tape at each end. If you would like
pockets use a longer towel and fold the end of your apron up a few inches and
sew along side edges.
