Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I wanted to create an apron based on the obi apron that would cover the blouse as well as the skirt and that would still take its inspiration from the kimono, as the original pattern does.
This is what I came up with.
Material Notes
Gorgeous medium weight cotton. I love making aprons because you can use quilting cotton, which always has amazing prints and is so easy to work with!

This would make a cute dress, with some changes to the back, of course!

Thanks! I thought the same thing after I was finished.
I’m actually obsessed with this dress:

but I haven’t been able to get my hands on the right fabric to make one of my own.
