For all the newbies who are asking..whatt ..how..Hmmmm......this was explained to me this way.....

Measure you a piece of card stock..4x6...draw your apron on it..till you get the shape you want...then cut it out. write pattern on it...use it with the rest of your card stock to cut out your aprons....do the same with the front paper of your apron..and again for the back if you are covering it...use glue sticks for paper to card stock..glue gun for heavier decorations..you can use sequins..ribbon..rick rack..ruffles..ect..there is no limit!! I hope this helps.  Cindy
