Make a Two Tea Towel Apron (Pretty!)

Reader Emily from The Pickled Weasel sent me this great project for a tea towel apron. At this point, we’ve done a few tea towel apron patterns, so you know this one must be special to be featured! And it is definitely special! I love the technique used for making this pretty and practical apron. See below for a photo of the unique way this apron is assembled (it creates useful pockets!). This is a great idea for your handmade holiday gifting. [click here for the tea towel apron tutorial]

Project Estimate:

Two tea towels, $1 each
Twill tape or ribbon, on hand or $1
Sewing stuff, on hand

Total: $2 and up

My grandma used to make towels with aprons like this! She would make little ones for us kids too. Such a great idea I’m glad you posted it!

This is perfect, especially for me this time of year! I have around 300 cookies to bake and my son and I always do them. This is a perfect idea I can make and use the adult and kid style aprons. THANKS Bunches!

I made one last night! It turned out cute. I used red plaid towels I found at the dollar store. My mom has been asking for an apron, so I’ll be giving this one to her! Great idea- thanks!

The 80s Called…
And they want their prom dress flower back. I recently saw this great little tutorial on making ribbon flowers at Make It Do. How beautiful is that? It is perfect for spring and with all the grey, damp, snowy weather we’ve had in West Virginia, I could use something to brighten my days. I bought some ribbon. [...] […]
Tee Dress Fail
Half of the fail in this tee dress is just my body shape/size… I’ve been wanting for eons to make this tee dress from this video tutorial at threadbanger. EONS. So I finally did it tonight, after having some unexpected time on my hands due to the snowstorm. Well, it is certainly easy enough to do. [...] […]
Knot a Flower
Hmmmm, I am beginning to see a pattern with my crafting fails. Whenever I try to make some sort of flowery doo-dad for an jewelry project, I crash and burn. Here’s my latest flaming inferno of failure. I had an urge to go all Martha and make a flower zipper brooch like I have been seeing [...] […]
