If you’re a long time follower of my blog, you will know that I LOVE Aprons. Our girls Love making, wearing and designing Aprons. So it only seemed fitting to make our newest little girl, an Apron of her very own.
Instead of buying fabric, I thought I would Up-Cycle and Re-purpose an Maternity Shirt that I wore with her and some of our other babies. I know, SWEET!! Right?
I started out with a dress that I knew would fit her for sometime and measured the Chest (across and down) As well as where I wanted the Skirt of the Apron to fall.
I cut 2 pieces for the Bib (1 main piece of fabric and 1 for lining), I cut a long strip for the Skirt. I cut the snap part of the shirt, for the waistband. 4 strips for the neck straps and 4 for the waist straps.
Is this just not the sweetest thing.
I was going to make a flower for it but I ended up changing my mind. I LOVED the simplicity and sweetness of it and decided to keep it as is.
I also LOVE the sentiment of it. I remember waking up in the mornings when I was pregnant and always putting this on. I would wear it around the house because it was so cozy and comfy.
Now it’s our Little Misses First Apron.
You’ve gotta Love it!!
I know I do

This is an amazing repurpose. We are starting a link up party on Thursdays (today:), and we would love for you to join us with this post and/or any others you would like to include. We are at allthingswithpurpose.com. Hope to see you there!!
That is adorable, Angelina! I miss sewing clothes for my little (now big) girls.
OH, thank you so much Roeshel and thank you for stopping in!
This is just too cute and look forward to making one for a future grandaughter as my only grandaughter (among 8 grandsons) does not wear anything frilly or girly…so I long to sew for a baby girl. Maybe soon as have two sons hoping to have children in the near future. Lovely patterns and tutorials you offer just bookmarked your blog. I was sent here from U-Create and so glad to have her share your blog, I love it!!!
