I use leftover fabrics from other projects to make this set of apron and bandanna for my son’s cooking class at school.
The apron bands are attached by a pair of buttons on the side to make putting it on easier. The letters on the apron are made of red felt with adhesive backing. I print some letters on paper, attached them upside down to the backing of the red felt and cut it out. Then I peeled off the backing and just stick and iron the letters on the apron.
The bandanna uses elastic on the back so it doesn’t need to be tied either. I also made a small bag in coordinating fabric to carry the apron and bandanna. As usual, my son wants his helmet beetles (kabuto-mushi) everywhere, so there’s one on the apron, one on the bandanna, and one on the bag.

Wow, this looks great, my son would love one of these sets. I love the fabric combination you’ve used, and the button at the sides are perfect for little fingers.

Fantastic idea. My 4 year old is mad on cooking and keeps telling everyone she is the chef of the house and has been nagging for a chefs hat!!! I think I might have to have a go at something like this for her!
