Go green with this vintage apron from the early 1920s. Hang your laundry out to dry with the help of this garment; the half apron has a large pocket to hang your clothespins. Using just one yard of fabric, it's a quick sewing project that makes a great gift ... especially when coupled with a package of clothespins!

Suggested fabrics: lightweight canvas, denim, twill, poplin, quilting cotton, etc.

Yardage requirements: 1 yard of fabric, 2.5 yards of 1/2" double-fold bias tape. (Make your own if you want the tape to match the fabric -- it's not hard to do!)

This pattern is Decades of Style 2002.
