Kitchen Towel Apron



I came up with this pattern as a gift for my daughter's friend's birthday. Very easy. I found some cute kitchen towels on clearance after valentine's day. I cut off the top corners of the towel to give it an apron shape (you could use another apron as a pattern), leaving the rest of the sides, top and bottom alone. I then took a package of extra wide double fold bias tape, left enough tail on one end for tying, sewed it to the cut edge, left a large enough loop to fit over a child's head (measure this), sewed tape to the other cut edge, and left an equal tail on the other side. DONE! I added a contrasting pocket on the first one I made, just for some extra fun.
