The finished work is amazing! No interfacing on dresses, tops, no bias for armholes etc and look how pretty and finished everything is. How I wish I had known the simplicity of it all. But what did I do 50 years ago? I followed all the instruction on the Simplicity Patterns without thinking. Thank you smart Woman!
I love this and wish I had seen this demo recently as I made one from sight and its a bit too big. Divine baby ... You're so right to not miss a single minute. Girl, please put a bath towel under your iron before you ruin that beautiful wood floor !!! : )
Thank you, Thank you!! This is what I’ve been looking for. My daughter is homeschooled and this is one project we will be making. Young ladies these days aren’t taught to sew Home economics has been cut out of schools. Boys need it too but young women don’t have the skills they used too. My daughter is also learning to loom and crochet. Love your channel. Just subscribed
Bless you for sharing this tutorial. I was given an apron like this by a Japanese friend a few years ago. It’s the only one I wear, makes so much sense to have good cover while cooking. I’ve been wanting to make some for friends. Now I can. I didn’t have the confidence to figure it out for myself.
just finished sewing this as Christmas gift for my mother in law! i made a few mistakes (100% my fault, not yours!) but was able to catch & fix them before it was too late 😂 i’m so happy with the finished result. i hope she loves it!
This was only my third time sewing, and the instructions were perfect!! Thank you so much, I made one as a gift for my boyfriend’s mom. Your tutorials have been my favorite to follow since I started sewing!!
THANK YOU YOUNG LADY!!!! I successfully made a practice one of these last night (6/8/20)! Your directions were perfect! The good linen fabric arrives today!!!
Thank you so much for sharing! It is amazing to see you do all those things while taking care of your baby! You are definitely a Proverbs 31 lady! Blessings!
Oh my word, woman. How are you so productive with a newborn? You don't even look tired (even though I am sure you are). Thanks so much for the inspiration. I always feel motivated after watching you.
Thank you for this tutorial Lisa! Your calm voice, with clear instructions, and the gentle background music have me clicking over to amazon to order material for making an apron I've been wanting for quite some time!
So happy to have found this vlog. I look forward to making this apron. I've been wanting to make this style for a while now. Thank you for all of your vlogs & inspiration!
I adore the look of this apron and am currently sewing one with my mom. I love it so much I’m thinking of asking for one for my birthday since I absolutely love to bake! Thank you for sharing!❤️
Thank you for your time and wisdom while you share your instructions and video for the apron. I appreciate the ruffle options. Please consider placing additional layers on wax on your hardwood floors, heat and steam will shorten the lifespan and beauty of your floor.
I’m not normally a fan of ruffles of any kind but this came out really wonderful. I really enjoyed watching your project, now I definitely want to try.
Oooh thank you Lisa! Im relatively new to sewing. Your instructions were awesome and i was able to make it (without ruffle) (what is a gathering stitch lol?) In
I made this apron for my mom as a birthday gift, I love how it looks! Thank you for this video, you're Instructions were very easy and clear to understand ❤
Essex linen is currently available on Fat Quarter Shop website for $11.48/yard vs. $15+ on Amazon. This is just a personal recommendation as I was pricing the linen. Great tutorial, thank you!!
Your videos are great. Very easy to follow and understand. I LoVe this pinafore! P.S. I have kefir grains coming from Amazon tomorrow - you are a very inspiring young woman! Can’t wait to see what you’ll have for us next.
Love this...I made one after I watched your first video with the kids. Yours is way prettier. I made mine out of a dropcloth and its my favorite apron style ever because its so comfy at the neck...Micah is adorable😀
I love to experiment with Tie Dye and sometimes, that doesn't go as well as one might hope. I tried a different dye this weekend and ended up with muddy purple mess. Still good fabric. Guess it will be an apron now. Thanks!
My daughter teaches Kindergarten and also has fibromyalgia. As she is preparing to go back to the classroom yet still facing distancing and simply helping to keep everyone healthy, she is going to need to carry more stuff on her person. I am making her this apron and adding more pockets. She also will be wearing a scarf between her face shield and her body. It will enable her to still teach, not look so scary, and her classroom friends can see and hear how letters and words sound.
I took a sewing/fashion design class in college and I still can't for the life of me, figure out how to sew with a pattern, haha. PS--- Your makeup looks great! :)
This video was recommended to me by RU-vid, so I decided to watch and within 10 seconds had subscribed. Why? Because your little guy and my big brother have the same name. As soon as you said Micah, I knew your channel was for me. LOL!
I made this but the straps are to small for me so the apron kinda sits in my armpits lol. I will make it again but with a few adjustments so It fits my bodytype better :) This tutorial was so helpful for me to make it as a baby seamstress
Hey Lovely . How much material will I need . All up to make this pattern for a size 20 Australian sized woman in metric measurement if possible please ❓😏
Just increase the width a little, and strap length to accommodate. You want the main piece to overlap about four inches in the back, so measure accordingly. Hope that helps!
I have had several people ask about the serger. Looks like its time for a video! I only take my machines in when they break, but I probably should be more proactive about it!
I love your videos! Can you tell me where you purchase your linen? I want to make 100% Belgian linen sheets, and an wondering if you have any advice on where to purchase.
@@sandieblack4860 when I first got married I got brand new solid wood furniture. One day noticed husband's shirt needed a quick press. Yeah instead of dragging out ironing board I used table top, just for a couple of minutes. Table looked fine, but about a week later we started seeing the finish flake, and it only got worse from there. The wood can take it, but with the newer finishes on floors I wouldn't trust it to be safe.
Hi Lisa, would you do a vlog about sewing, sewing machines settings and maintenance? I have the exact same machine as you and my stitches come out funny. Either uneven, too much slack and such. I haven't used it much lately because of this and don't want to have to buy a new one, its barely been used. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.
Thank you!! I watched your sewing basics vlog today, which may solve at least part of my problem. I suspect my bobbin thread is not catching. I've never seen anyone check to see if it was catching before, thank you for all our helpful videos!
