Suggested fabrics: For a classic apron-style, choose a firm fabric like denim, cotton twill or linen. Lighter-weight cottons will also work well for summer; wool suiting or corduroy would be very smart for a winter pinafore version. For a more luxurious slinky look, try a heavy crepe. Fabric requirements: Sizes 6-16: 110 cm (45") wide fabric: 2 m (2 1/4 yd) // 140 cm (56") wide fabric: 1.7 m (2 yd).

Notions: Fasteners: 2 or 4 buttons to attach the straps, at least 2 cm (3/4") diameter.

You will need approx. 50 cm (20"). // Ribbons: If you don’t want to make your own straps and/or waist ties, you could use a wide grosgrain ribbon or cotton webbing – not too soft or too stiff so that it ties nicely. You will need approx. 1.5 m (1 3/4 yd) for the shoulder straps and approx. 2.5 m (3 yd) for waist ties.
