Last Thursday was the second of our Craft Clubs at Norden Farm Arts Centre. It was the first where we had asked our attendees to bring along their sewing machines, we were a little unsure of how it would work out, but we had a great group of ladies and a really fun time. You can Download our worksheet here if you want to have a go at making one yourself.

Getting the waist band in place, I love that this machine matches the apron.

Four of our Ladies wearing their aprons, don't they look gorgeous!
If you want to have a go at making an apron like we have, we adapted McCall's pattern 5284 which is a really cute apron pattern with a few different variations.
