Every baker needs a good apron when making their creations, especially when using flour, that stuff can get everywhere. Two days later you'll be in the shower still trying to get that stuff out of your hair. Well of course Martha has a pattern! It was surprisingly easy and turned out great! I found some cheap cupcake fabric at Joann's, about 1 1/2 yards and it was just the right amount. To make the pockets you just fold the fabric up to around the hips and sew two lines, it was so easy. I ended up lining it with thicker muslin to make it more durable, you can avoid this step by using a sturdy fabric to begin with, like canvas. I also outlined it with brown fabric and added two red buttons at the pockets. After trimming the sides, it was still too wide and long for me, but I'm just freakishly small. Again, I blame my family. Overall it was a quick and easy project that Martha would be proud of. And my clothes are grateful to be shielded from flying batter.
