Working on a new apron

Lately I’ve been working on this calico toile and pattern, following an enquiry about making a split leg tie apron like the pleated No14:2 but without pleats.

Pleats help give a lot of fabric coverage, so without them the apron needed a much bigger skirt overlap – but it does give lots more space for a much bigger skirt pocket, an angled pocket with sections for tools and a loop to hang your cleaning cloth!
