The Easiest Aprons to Make

Towel turned apron in just a few simple steps! Half the work is done for you because the dishtowels are already hemmed, so sewing is a snap. You've probably received some oh so pretty tea towels that you just can't bring yourself to actually use for fear of staining them. You're absolutely right, because the prettiest of towels should never be destined for a life of cleaning up spills and finally retiring to the rag pile. A dish towel apron is the perfect way to finally show them off!!

Some tea towels lead an unenviable life. Be it bad karma or simply un-spiffed-up-blandness, most tea towels eventually go by way of the rag pile, sopping up spilled wine and other snafus. Some, on the other hand, enjoy life in the lime light, and will never stoop so low as to clean a spill.
