With Karen Odinga
A two-week course, meeting Wednesday evenings 27th April and 4th May.
Be the hostess with the most-ness with this cross over apron. This apron is super easy to sew and learn how to make your own bias binding either to tone or contrast with the main colour of your choosing. You can wear as a traditional working apron to keep your clothes neat & tidy or use it as a fashion layer pinafore style. Endless options!
Multi size pattern with long or short options provided for a teeny tiny cost of £3. The short version is shown in the pictures.
