Make your own cross back apron or make one for him!
Here is a digital pattern for a practical, no tie apron for men and women.
The pattern is a 'one-size-fits-most' pattern but I have indicated in the pattern how you can easily make it wider.
The sewing guide can be downloaded so you can start sewing instantly for yourself or for gift making.
*** The pattern is completely revised in December 2024
In the PDF files I describe step by step how to sew your own apron guided by drawings and photos.
Also for a beginner in sewing, the instructions are simple to follow.
The measurements of the apron are
The fit is loose and easy and the apron falls open on the back.
If you have doubts about the hip circumference of 90 cm / 35.5", please note that when the apron is open on the back, it is more comfortable to work and bend, than when the back overlaps a lot.
The maximum dimensions of fabric you will need to make the apron is 140 wide x 100 long cm / 55" wide by 39" long. This is also if you want to make the apron wider.
The pattern can be printed on A4 format paper, US Letter, and I've added a one sheet pattern if you prefer going to a print shop.
PDF files can be read with the free software Adobe Acrobat Reader, often already installed on computers but if not, safe to download from the internet.
