Description
The Abby Apron sewing pattern is a vintage modern retro style A-line apron featuring petal-shaped side panels and coordinated neck straps. Instructions are streamlined for efficient high-quality construction.
This stylish apron is reminiscent of the 1940s with a long and sleek A-line silhouette. The apron skirt features three lovely petal-shaped side panels for a slightly scalloped hemline; the body and neck strap continue the theme, using accents in groups of one or three for a coordinated look. With every seam finished and trimmed with bias binding for beauty and durability, this apron could prove challenging for the beginner, but the results will be well worth it!

⟡ About Fit & Ease
How Our Sizing Works

Our misses block is drafted for a true hourglass figure with broader shoulders, a full B‑cup bust, a long waist, and a height of 5’7″. Fitted styles generally include:
- 3″ full‑bust ease
- 0–1″ waist ease
- 2″ hip ease
Additional design ease may be added depending on the style. To understand the finished garment fit, refer to the body measurements in the chart and add the ease amounts listed above.
Plus Fit
Our plus block is drafted for a different distribution of curves than the misses block, with narrower shoulders, a fuller waist and hip, a slightly shorter waist length, and a height of 5’7″. Plus patterns include cup sizes from C–F, which vary by style. Fitted styles include:
- 2.5″ full‑bust ease (to support a smooth fit on a fuller bust)
- 1″ waist ease
- 4″ hip ease
Additional design ease may be added depending on the style. To understand the finished garment fit, refer to the body measurements in the chart and add the ease amounts listed above.
