I got a present today

I wanted an apron in the Japanese style and my friend, an excellent seamstress, made a pattern and and apron from a photo I sent her. She added the patterned fabric as an extra touch.
That is awesome, I love the pattern she chose. Looks cute!

@dreary Thank you so much.
@summerfield Yes, I wanted the fuller coverage for doing projects. Cause I can get dirty everywhere.

What a great photo and a super apron!

A lovely image of both

Please excuse my ignorance but can I ask what a Japanese style apron is?
August 13th, 2021  
I love that it gives good coverage.

Your friend is very clever and its a lovely shot of you too.

Lovely colours and you looked chuffed to bits!

Nice, my wife has a few nice aprons, She worked for Progressive so has a Flo one also.

Oh, I just love this! First of all the apron is fabulous but it’s so wonderful to see you like this. You are lucky to have such a good friend!

A super apron, she did a lovely job!

It's so pretty! I've never had an apron but I probably should use one-I'm always wiping my hands on my jeans! haha. A very cute selfie/apron model!

I also don't know what a Japanese style apron is. But it is nice and you do look happy to have it. 😊

Wonderful apron from an exceptional friend! Not to get to cooking... : - )

Thank you @jamibann @Dawnf or you views and comments.
@kjarn @jb030958 Here's a link to a pattern for one. You can see it made up in several different fabrics. http://www.thedailysew.com/2015/02/japanese-style-smock-apron-to-sew/
@wakelys I thought it would be useful for working in besides cooking. Repotting plants, cleaning etc.
@pusspup Thank you. She's so talented and was so eager to make it. (How could I refuse)
@30pics4jackiesdiamond Thanks. I was chuffed to bits.
@brillomick Thanks Mickey. How fun is a Flo apron. I usually wear aprons when I cook and sometimes when I am eating. I usually get food all down the front of me. And sometimes other places, too.
@grammyn I am very lucky. I just wanted her to help me figure out how I could make one. Thanks Katy
@craftymeg Thank you Margaret. She really did. The patterned part was a nice surprise.
@olivetreeann Thanks Ann. I love to wear aprons. They help keep me clean. Somehow I can get food all over me.
@thewatersphotos Thank you Gary. I don't want to get it dirty!!!

Thanks for the link, it looks interesting. Is there any particular reason why this style is preferred over a normal apron?
August 14th, 2021  
@kjarn I wanted the extra coverage for tasks that were extra messy like working with plants or cleaning. I'm very messy and I liked the style when I saw it.
August 14th, 2021  
Very nice
August 14th, 2021  
Fair enough too
August 14th, 2021  
What a neat present! And sweet, talented friend!
August 14th, 2021  
The personal touch is everything. I bet it will be your favourite apron from now on!

@bkbinthecity @mcsiegle @will_wooderson I'm blessed with friends, more than I realize (blessings and friends). Thank you for your comments Brian, Mary and Will.

This is one of my favorite styles of aprons. I love aprons, wear them all the time! Glad to find a compatriot
