This simple apron is called a "surplice" apron and is worn by ladies in both Amish and conservative Mennonite groups. We can make this in any of our Tropical Breeze Poly/Cottons. Our cottons are not wide enough for the way the skirt needs to be cut out. The top crosses over the shoulders and ends in a triangle at the back. The waistband extends around the back and fastens with one button at the side. The skirt is pleated at the front and extends part way around the side for great coverage. The finish is simple with surged edges folded over and sewn. The sizing on this apron is a little different from our size chart. Please see the sizes above to find your appropriate size. Be careful...if your waist is much larger than 34", the largest size will not fit. The waist is fairly fitted, so this is not a style where you want to size down. Sewn by permission from a pattern by Friends Patterns.
Please see measurements in size options in the selections above.
