Twist Apron

7/1/2020

I created the Twist Apron when my sister, who is a bakery diva, had a birthday. I wanted to give her a custom apron that was as unique as her delightful pastry treats.
What makes this pattern different? It is how you wear the Twist Apron. You simply place the scarf part around your neck and then wrap the apron around your waist. This pattern fits most but you can adjust the bib width to accomdate your bust size. Here is a short video showing you how to put it on.

Step 1: Cut out your Twist Apron pattern using the measurements below.

Style 1
Fabric A:
Wrap Bib- 15”X 50”
Ties- 2- 6”X 44”
Waistbands 2- 3.5”X 22”
Fabric B:
Panel 18”X 22”
Pocket 13.5” X 6.5”
Interfacing Waistbands 2- 3.5”X 22”

Style 2
Fabric A:
Wrap Bib- 15”X 50”
Panel 18”X 22”
Pocket 13.5” X 6.5”
Fabric B:
Ties- 2- 6”X 44”
Waistbands 2- 3.5”X 22”
Interfacing Waistbands 2- 3.5”X 22”

Step 2: Fuse the interfacing to the waistbands measuring 3.5” X 22”. Set these aside.

Step 3: Create the apron pocket. Fold the pocket fabric right sides together and stitch along the raw edges. Leave an opening so you can flip it right sides out. Flip it out and iron flat.

Step 4: Pin in place the apron pocket 4” from the 18” side and 5” from the bottom 22” side of the apron panel and sew the pocket onto the apron panel.

Step 5: Fold and iron the raw edges of the 18” sides of the apron panel twice, then fold and iron the bottom 22” side. Sew around the three edges of the apron panel.

Step 6: Fold and iron the long 50” raw edges twice, then fold the raw edge of one short edge measuring 15” and sew along the three edges.

Step 7: Gather the bib short end that still has the raw edge until it measures 10”.

Step 8: Sandwich the gathered apron bib between the waistbands measuring 3.5” X 22”, 2.75” from the edge and 1” over the center fold mark.

Step 9: Sew the ties to each short ends of the waistband measuring 6”.

Step 10: Sew the apron panel to the waistband. (Wrong side of apron panel to the back waistband.)

Step 11: Iron the apron panel up and the front waistband fold and iron .5”.

Step 12: Fold the ties right sides together and sew them together. Back tack right before the front panel.

Step 13: Turn the ties right side out and iron. Topstitch along the bottom edge of the apron ties and close the opening of the front waistband.
