In recent times, it has become so evident that many ladies have reverted to putting on ruffle apron as a show of the ever changing trends within the clothing industry. This attire was very much common during the sixties. It is worn by women while in the house attending to their day to day chores and even on the streets when shopping or taking a walk.

With ease in designing and coming up with this wear, it has become common clothing amongst them. As of such, even a person with the slightest knowledge in sewing can come up with this garment. All she needs to do is to have the right materials, measurements and tools for this task. Following the given instructions becomes an easy thing to do.

The process commences with one folding the main fabric into a half and cutting one corner in a circular manner. This is for straps of shoulders. They are later folded and sewn as per the size of the person when it comes to length and width. The standard size is that of twenty six inches long and five inches wide.

Once done, additional overlaps are added on the two different parts. These flaps are designed using ribbons and materials of different colors but have a matching aspect. They are fitted beneath the preceding ones. This is mainly for beautification purpose. In the end, the two separate pieces are sewn together to form a complete apron worth wearing. The process is a simple as that.

These are fabrics for the main body and those for the overlaps. The best recommendation is to have fabrics which agree in color and are of different appearance. Some may be flowery in such a case.

A person needs to have the right measurements when coming up with a sketch plan for the aprons. With the right size, he or she is in a position to come up with the right fitting attire. Over-sized and baggy aprons are discouraged since they are uncomfortable to wear. Small ones are not advised either since some parts of the clothes may not be fully covered.
