Our beginner-friendly Rosalie Apron is named after S4H Studio Kitty, Rosalie Madeline – a nod to the cute Here Kitty Kitty fabric by Cori Dantini for FreeSpirit Fabrics. The apron is as soft and light as a cat’s whiskers with no added interfacing, allowing it to wrap and tie for a super comfy fit. When
In cooking, sometimes it takes just a pinch of this and a dash of that to bring a dish to its full flavor. It’s similar in sewing, where a splash of embellishment can be the finishing touch to make your project shine. For this classic single-layer apron, we used the Janome 3-Way Cording foot to

When we moved to the country, one of the first differences we noticed was the birds. In the city, there wasn't much in the way of bird diversity. You have pigeons, starlings and crows - not much else. But outside of town, we're surrounded by a variety of feathered friends singing, swooping and scattering as

Designed to hold whichever tools you use most in your role as a Maker of beautiful things. There’s a set of 13 pockets and the bib is detachable. It would be a fantastic vendor apron for craft fairs and farmer’s markets.

This apron is one of our most popular ever. The free downloadable pattern allows you to cut the main front and back of the apron as single panels. We love the retro style of the sweetheart neckline and mini-sweet pockets.

Facings along both sides of the bib are made into casings, then threaded through with an extra-long tie that acts a continuous drawstring, creating both the adjustable neck loop as well as the wraparound waist ties.

This reversible apron features a cool crossover bib. And, fussy cutting a large, bold motif creates a dramatic finish. We offer detailed steps as well as links to full S4H tutorials on fussy cutting and pattern matching.

Football + beyond: a tailgate party is always a great gathering! Show your pride with an apron in team logo fabric. A solid and stripe in coordinating team colors for the lining, pockets, and bottom accent band add extra team spirit.

If cooking makes you happy, you definitely need this happy little apron. There are three tiers of ruffles in a shorter, sassier style plus an extra flounce across the bodice. An easy-to-assemble pattern is included.

Like whipped cream on a plain piece of pie, decorative stitches turn an ordinary project into something special. We started with a basic bib + skirt apron design in natural colors of cotton duck, then added multiple rows of stitching.

More things in life should be reversible. Having a string of bad luck? Flip it over, and win the lottery. If that’s not possible, you can at least start with this cool reversible apron. We used bold, summer-fun colors on both sides.

Pretty points on the bib and skirt give this signature S4H apron its name, but we also think it sparkles like a diamond thanks to all the beautiful details. There’s a free pattern download to help create perfect angles.

This hardworking apron is full of clever surprises. The most striking is its cool lace-up front: bold eyelets woven through with a boot lace. There’s also a hanging pocket that moves with you and a bright pop of color on the lining.

One unique apron pulls together three embellishment techniques: embroidery, decorative stitching, and quilting. We also added form-flattering pleats underneath the waistband and darts in the lower bodice.

While working on this gorgeous apron, I admit to humming that old nursery rhyme under my breath, “Tinker, Tailor, Solider, Sailor….” We absolutely love the vintage tailoring motifs that run through the Dapper collection by Tim Holtz for FreeSpirit Fabrics. We took the theme and ran with it, designing an apron with subtle hints of

Careful fussy cutting and renaissance details give this apron its unique style. Pattern downloads are offered for the bodice pieces as well as the pretty oval pocket. Originally done in the Elizabeth collection by Tula Pink.

What if you could create a beautiful apron from just 5 fat quarters and a tiny bit of lining — with virtually no wasted fabric?! The scraps from this garden party apron could fit in a garden party teacup.

Ombre is a French word for shading or graduating. In fashion, it refers to the graduation of color in a garment, such as when a fabric is very dark at one end and gradually lightens. With the multitude of tones to choose from within today's quilting cotton solids, we were able to achieve a beautiful

A number of colors and textures come together in this pretty apron, but each item is balanced – so they all shine together rather than one thing hogging center stage. Both the neck and waist ties are fully adjustable.
