• To begin, cut out your pieces.
  For the straps, cut two pieces 50 inches long by 5 inches wide.
  For the main piece, cut a rectangle 28 inches wide by 20 inches long.
  For the pocket, cut 20 inches wide by 12 inches long.

SEW STRAP PIECES

• Take one strap, fold the top over a half inch to the wrong side. Then fold in half lengthwise, right sides together, and sew down the long side with a quarter inch seam.
• At this point, you will leave both sides open.Use a large safety pin and attach the pin to one opening, then push it through the straps to turn it right side out.
• Next, top stitch down both long sides and across the top that you folded over. Repeat with the other strap.

MAIN PIECE:

• Next, turn over all four edges on the main piece by 1/2 inch, then another 1/2 inch, and then press with an iron to create a hem.
• Sew a 1/2 inch hem down both long sides. Leave the short sides open at this point. Tuck the straps’ raw edges into the open hems on the main piece, flush with the top. Pin in place.
• Sew down the straight edges, catching the waist straps.Repeat on both sides.To make the straps lay nicely, pull them out and top stitch on the hem.

CREATE THE POCKET:

• On the pocket piece, create a hem by folding over all of the edges 1/2 inch, then another half inch to hide the raw edges. Sew a top stitch down one of the long sides. Center the pocket piece over the main piece making sure the sewn hem is facing the top of the apron. Pin in place.
• Sew down the two sides and the bottom pressed hems, leaving the top of the pocket open.
• Make sure to back-and-forth stitch at the beginning and the end.
• Find the center of the pocket and sew down to create two smaller pockets.
