HOW TO SEW A SIMPLE APRON

Send

Parents of children attending municipal kindergartens often receive tasks from teachers: to sew or knit clothes for dolls, paint the veranda, make various accessories for role-playing games, mental and physical development.
Suppose a teacher asked mom to sew a children's apron for an impromptu kitchen. But how to do this without much skill to needlework? It turns out that not everything is so complicated. You need only a little patience and have at least some kind of working sewing machine.
To create a children's apron with your own hands you will need:
- cotton material - 0.5 m;
- tape or braid for decoration - 1 m;
- threads, scissors, sewing machine.
We cut out the workpiece of the future apron on the material. In this example, it is intended for a boy. The dimensions (in mm) indicated in the photo are suitable for the manufacture of a finished apron for a child 4-6 years old. You can adjust the dimensions of the pattern, and sew the product for a younger or older child. Do not forget to add allowances of 1-1.5 cm for binder. We trim the edges of the apron with a double hem; we pay special attention to the corners.

We prepare three blanks in the form of wide ribbons. Two of them (size 8x30 cm) are designed for ties at the waist. The third blank (8x45 cm in size) is on the neck. Fold the “ribbons” along the length and iron with an iron. Each half is folded along the inside again with the wrong side. Firmware manually and then on a typewriter. We get workpieces 2 cm wide. The one that is longer is sewn at the top of the apron, the other two are in the waist area.

To decorate the product, use a satin ribbon or braid. You can “connect” the fantasy, add a patch pocket, bows (if it will be an apron for the girl) or an applique, sew on frills, etc. At the beginning and at the end of the stitches, it is necessary to make a double stitch so that the product does not "spill over" and can last a long time.
