Step-by-Step Gardening Apron Tutorial Video131

Are you tired of getting your clothes dirty while gardening? A gardening apron is a great way to keep yourself clean and protected while you work in your garden. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to make a simple and stylish gardening apron that's perfect for any gardener.

Materials* 1 yard of cotton canvas fabric
* 1/2 yard of contrasting cotton fabric
* 1/4 yard of batting
* 1/2 yard of bias tape
* Scissors
* Sewing machine
* Thread
* Iron
* Measuring tape
* Fabric marker or chalk

Instructions1. Cut out the apron body and straps. From the canvas fabric, cut out a rectangle that is 24 inches wide and 30 inches long. This will be the apron body. From the contrasting fabric, cut out two rectangles that are 3 inches wide and 24 inches long. These will be the apron straps.
2. Sew the straps to the apron body. Fold the ends of the straps over 1/2 inch and press them. Pin the straps to the apron body, aligning the raw edges. Sew the straps to the apron body, using a 1/4 inch seam allowance.
3. Create the pocket. Cut out a rectangle of contrasting fabric that is 12 inches wide and 14 inches long. Fold the top edge of the pocket over 1/2 inch and press it. Fold the sides of the pocket over 1/4 inch and press them. Pin the pocket to the apron body, aligning the raw edges. Sew the pocket to the apron body, using a 1/4 inch seam allowance.
4. Add the batting to the apron body. Cut a piece of batting that is the same size as the apron body. Place the batting on the wrong side of the apron body and pin it in place.
5. Quilt the apron body. Using a sewing machine, quilt the apron body by stitching through all layers of fabric and batting. You can use any quilting pattern you like.
6. Bind the edges of the apron. Fold the edges of the apron over 1/2 inch and press them. Fold the bias tape in half and place it over the raw edges of the apron. Pin the bias tape in place and sew it down, using a 1/4 inch seam allowance.
Your gardening apron is now complete! Put it on and enjoy gardening without getting your clothes dirty.

Tips* You can use any type of fabric you like for your gardening apron. Canvas is a durable fabric that is perfect for gardening, but you could also use denim, corduroy, or even oilcloth.
* If you don't have any batting, you can use a piece of old blanket or even a layer of newspaper.
* You can customize your gardening apron by adding pockets, embellishments, or even a monogram.
* Be sure to wash your gardening apron regularly to keep it clean and looking its best.
