Oh my gosh I love this!! Is it pretty simple to make? My sister gave me a bunch of her aprons from when she used to work at Starbucks and I would love to make one of these if it isnβt too difficult

Thank you. It's pretty easy to make honestly. I sewed it by hand, as I didn't have a sewing machine, so the hardest thing was finding the time to actualy make it.

By hand? My my, those stitches are impressively clean, my friend.

Do you have any directions or something for a beginner? I have a ton of aprons that I donβt use and would love to make this cute bag!
GarbageArchitect [OP]19 points2y ago
Sure. It's pretty simple really. I cut the front and back from two different aprons and they are have the same dimensions. Then I cut the bottom and sewed that in what will become the Inside so you have clean seams on the outside. Then I added the pocket on the front before cutting and sewing the side. The draw string in made by simply folding the top over to create a tunnel for the string to be in. And finally the straps get sewed onto the back at whatever place seems to work best. Hope this helps
