Tie one on!

I have fallen in love with aprons! They are my latest fetish. It all started with the cute striped William-Sonoma aprons that we used to be able to buy for $1 from DownEast Home. It only grew from there.

I came across this website for the National Tie One On Day! Let's get busy and make some aprons to share!
National Tie One On Day™ celebrates the humble apron and the spirit of women of earlier generations who donned the universal symbol of home, family and mothering as the uniform of their daily wardrobe and helped make America the great country it is today. On the day before Thanksgiving, EllynAnne encourages us to pause in the preparation of our own meal, wrap a loaf of bread in an apron, tuck a prayer or note of encouragement in the pocket, and tie one on...an apron, of course!, and deliver the wrapped bundle to someone in need of spiritual or physical sustenance.

I borrowed this Retro Apron pattern from MaryJane:

Notice the cute stripey bias binding. Check out the tutorial below.
