This is a comfortable apron, I've been using this one for years. It hangs from the shoulders so that there are no ties wrinkling your clothing underneath. I also use it as an oversize clothing protector when I am eating.
| This bib apron is sewn with a light weight poly cotton fabric and is trimmed with a light weight lace * Pre- wash fabrics |  |

Sewing Instructions
Step #1
Cut one layer of fabric for body, placing on fold
Cut one pocket, placing on fold
Step #2
Turn 1/4 inch hem around pocket, place on main pattern piece at markings. Stitch around bottom of pocket and a verticle line of stitching on the center line of the pocket.
Step #3
Turn a 1/4 inch hem around main body and Stitch lacearound edge.
Step #4 Velcro
Place velcro at shoulders.
Close crossing behind your back.
If you want you could just sew the shoulder seams, because when I wear mine I just pull it over my head without undoing the velcro everytime I put it on.
Tip #1 - Washing
When using Velcro, close before laundering.
This will minimize damage to other clothing in the laundry load.
I will prevent bibs from snarling up if you are washing several at a time.
Tip #2 - Traveling
Bring an attractive bib along for long airline flights where eating will be required.
Tip #3 - Traveling
Everyone can use a bib on long car trips to save yourself from spills.
Tip #4 - Cosmetics
Keep a bib in the bathroom to slip on before applying make-up.
