Hi AllFreeSewing readers! I cannot begin to describe how much I love and have learned from AllFreeSewing.com. I check this website just about every week; whenever I’m in the mood for something new to make, and the projects never disappoint. So, I am ridiculously honored to be a guest blogger today in honor of National Sewing Month!
For today, I’ve created a very special tutorial for those of you who like sewing EASY and CHEAP projects (like me). Head on over to my blog to learn how to make a 4 Step Apron using nothing but scraps and bias tape. The entire project will cost you no more than $3 … and take probably about 15 minutes. Seriously. I wouldn’t lie to you!
Have you ever sewn an apron before? What kinds of quick sewing projects do you like to make?

I am currently creating a full range of apron styles as gifts for friends and family. Thanks for the inspiration.
I have sewn an apron made of 5″ charms. It turned out super cute. I love this apron design, so simple but so useful. Thanks!!!
I made a bbq apron for my dad once a long time ago. I like aprons but can’t get used to wearing them. I like quick sewing projects that make great gift ideas.
I have never sewn an apron, but this one looks so easy and cute.
I don’t normally wear aprons but remember my granny cooking in one and my great granny usually had a full apron on over her dress. I might have to continue the tradition and pass it down to my granddaughter as well. Thanks for the tutorials and the giveaway.
I have sewn an apron for everyone in my family. I love to make oven mitts, pot holders and table runners.
I made aprons for my 3-year and 4-year-old grandgirls last spring. They love them!
I wear aprons all the time The 1st one I made in school and still have it, also have a few of my grandmothers/
I made an apron in home ec in high school many, many years ago! I haven’t done many sewing projects in the last few years.
I saved this pattern .. good, easy one
I’ve been gathering material for some aprons. For small projects, I like to make “pamper me” items, like a rice pad or something.
They are asking me to set up needle work classes through church, and I am watching for any ideas to start. Many have never held a needle before. These will help. Thanks
I’ve never made an apron! I love making quick gifts for my children!
I’ll pick this idea to sew some Christmas gifts to my friends!!!!
Great idea for an apron! Would be a great teacher gift. I know it is one I will use to teach others how to sew.
What a great idea. My family volunteers to cook at a local club monthly and this would be so much better than wearing a leftover dirty apron of someone else’s! I can’t wait to find the time to make one.
I love sewing aprons! I always wear one in the kitchen and they make great gifts. Thank you!
so cute! I made one for my sister and niece!
I’ve never made an apron before. My quick projects are napkins.
I have not sewn an apron but would definitely try this one…. I like to sew pillows as a quick project
I too have an apron made long, long ago in junior high school. It is out of polished cotton with pretty pink wild roses on it. This one looks simple and would be great to keep my sewing tools close to me. Thank you for the tutorials and give away!
No aprons yet – but I am sure when the right fabric comes my way I will have to give in to the temptation.
I’ve sewn lots of aprons – they are great gifts.
I haven’t but will be making this as a gift and one for myself! I like making things that can be given as gifts.
it was so easy!! didn’t take that long to make either!
I haven’t made an apron since my first sewing 4-H project. After this tutorial, there may be some aprons forthcoming SOON! What an inspiration and to see these youngins sewing!
This is by far the simplest apron pattern I’ve found! I tried a “one hour apron” before and gave up after the directions left out what seemed to be half the steps.
I’m not an apron sewer but I’ve been working on fabric purses and tote samples for our sewing class at school.
I like the very simple apron. I need a to make a few for gifts
So cute! these would make great hostess gifts, too.
