Alice's Apron

Picture
Remember Alice in Wonderland from
vienna photo marathon 2014
?
Well, I am finally ready to disclose how I made her apron. You only need a few hours, a piece of old white bedsheet, a ribbon and some textile paint.


First, you cut a piece of your bedsheet, or any other fabric that you fancy. I don't have a pattern, but you can use the template I drew below:

Taka care of your raw edges to make sure they don't come apart: you can serge them, put bias tape, or, as in my case, fold twice, iron and sew.
Picture
Attach the upper and lower pieces with a ribbon...

...and add ribbon ties to the upper part. I chose that closing so it could fit not only my model, but also the 8 year old girl who donated her old bedsheet for the project.
Picture
Paint some playing cards (I know, not the original Alice's apron, but quite recognisable).
Picture
Let dry, iron, and you are done!

Happy crafting from me and let there be more Alices!
