Recently, a very loyal customer requested a garden apron. I told her it might be a couple of weeks until I got to it because I'm bogged down with requests from co-workers and photography gigs. But by Sunday night, I just couldn't wait any longer. I was inspired after a day full of gardening and knew exactly how I wanted it to be.
I chose some simple linen for the main section and tie piece, then used various fabrics to make the pockets. There are four pockets in all, and I bordered the top with some vintage trim.
It's super comfortable to wear and fits small gardening tools in the pockets quite nicely. The top can fold down if you like it to sit low on your hips, or can be worn slightly higher.
So I guess I'm going to have to make another one. After this little photo shoot, I realized gardening would be much more fun (and stylish) with an apron on!
