Recently I was presented with the opportunity to repurpose a sweet vintage table cloth into, not 1 but 2 aprons..
A MJF girl purchased the table cloth at her dear friends parents Estate Sale. I had fun deciding what type of aprons to make and am glad that now both MaryJo and her friend will have repurposed aprons with sentimental value. ![](icons/icon_smile.gif)
![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/06/DSCF3225.jpg?v 65420389) this is the pattern I used for the full apron,,, I decided to line the fabric with sweet fabric which now makes the apron reversible.
![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/06/DSCF3229.jpg?v 4862765) stitching it up on my little FeatherWeight machine.

![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/06/DSCF3226.jpg?v 56546049) and the half apron...
![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/06/DSCF3234.jpg?v 40402925)
![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/06/DSCF3237.jpg?v 61127643) and yes,,, as always,,, a yoyo or two...
![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/06/DSCF3238.jpg?v 31173894) the fabric on the pocket was the back side fabric...![](icons/icon_smile_big.gif) Thank you MaryJo for letting me be part of the new history of these aprons and thank you for your sweet "Jack in the Pulpit" photo card...

Aww, Grace, those aprons are just beautiful! I love how you repurposed them! And, beautiful renditions of the pattern you chose! (Oh, my favorite colors)

I bought the pattern at the "Ben Franklin' store in Cheney Washington,,, sadly the store has since gone out of business :>( [you can google 'Jan Lutz apron patterns" to see what is still available].
I did some modification to the apron pattern, I made the neck tie adjustable rather than a permanent attached on,, I made a 'loop' on one side so you can run the tie through it and tie it to fit. For the 1/2 apron, there was no waist band,,, I added a waist band and pleated the fabric into the band... Sometimes I just can't follow the rules,,, and yes I also run with scissors! snork, giggle...

Love, Love, Love them! I never thought to use a table cloth. I'll have to keep that in mind next time I go visit my grandpa. I know my grandma had lots of table cloths and this would be a wonderful way to use them!!! Thanks so much for sharing and inspiring :)

I love that fabric. I have so many of my mom's tablecloths and now I know what to use some for. I have thought about making dishtowels and stitching on them. Need to get a fire lit here and get a move on!

when I use vtg. re-purposed table covers I line them so the thread work (knots etc) don't show. I luv having 'cutters' for re-purposing.

I love making aprons. I have lots of patterns I have never used, but I bought them because they were the retro look. LOL! I have a tablecloth now to make an apron. Can't wait to get started.
And some of the smaller embroidered pieces make great pockets!

I just discovered the neatest pattern for an apron. It's different! I'm going to make one and then I will post a picture. I think all you apron lovers will enjoy it!

Here is the latest apron I just finished.
![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/08/2015-08-24_090245.jpg?v 32690447) ![](http://www.maryjanesfarm.org/Snitz/Images/2015/08/2015-08-24_090520.jpg?v 1698918) It is a bloomers apron. What do you think? I found the pattern in a quilt book I had.
