From Fabric A (CWEA 200 E) cut: (1) rectangle 19 x 21 for the Main skirt From Fabric B (FPIC 454 W) cut: (1) rectangle 9 x 25 for the Ruffle From Fabric C (FPIC 456 W) cut: (2) strips 5 x 31 for the Waistband straps (2) strips 3 x 19 for the Waistband From Fabric D (FPIC 453 MU) cut: (1) rectangle 12 x 19 for the Pocket Assembly All seams are 1 /2 unless otherwise indicated. Seams will be fully enclosed, so there is no need to serge or finish the raw edges of the pieces before sewing. Make the Apron Skirt 1. Take the pocket piece and measure in 6 from either side. Using a removable marking pen, draw a line from top to bottom of the pocket. These lines are the stitching lines. 6 6 2. Turn the top raw edge of the pocket piece down 1 /2 to the wrong side and press. Fold the top edge down 1 /2 again and press. Topstitch across the top 1 /8 and again 3 /8 from the folded edge. 3. Lay the right side of the pocket piece against the wrong side of the main skirt piece so that the bottom raw edge of the pocket is aligned with the bottom raw edge of the main skirt. Sew a 1 /2 seam across the bottom and press the seam open. 4. Fold the pocket piece to the right side of the main skirt piece, and press the folded seam flat. Topstitch 1 /8 and again 3 /8 from the fold. This will finish the bottom hem. 5. Topstitch the pocket piece to the main skirt, following the pressed stitching line from step 1. The pocket will now have three sections. From this point on, treat the pocket and main skirt as a single piece the apron skirt.

Turn the sides 1 /4 again, and topstitch to finish the sides.
Apron instructions continued from flap. Make the Ruffle 7. Take the ruffle piece and fold it in half right sides together, matching the raw edges. Sew down the side raw edges. Turn the ruffle piece right side out and press. Fold in half widthwise and mark the center with a pin. 8. Baste a line across the top raw edge of the ruffle 1/4 from the raw edge, and then again 3/8 from the top raw edge, leaving a long tail at either end. 12. Sew the remaining waistband piece, now the waistband front, to the top of the apron skirt right sides together and flip it right side up. Press the seam allowance towards the top of the waistband front. Remove all basting stitches from the ruffle and apron skirt. Wrong side of waistband front Wrong side of ruffle Baste FOLD Center Right side of Ruffle 9. Pin the ruffle to the right side of the apron skirt at the center and both ends, matching the top raw edges. Gather the ruffle by pulling the basting threads until the raw edge of the ruffle measures the same length as the top raw edge of the apron skirt. Distribute the gathers evenly across the top and baste the ruffle to the apron skirt 1 /2 from the raw edge. Set aside for now. Center Make the Waistband 10. Take the waistband strap pieces and fold the long sides 1 /2 to the wrong side. Fold one short side 1 /2 and then fold the entire strap wrong sides together, matching folds. Press flat and then topstitch around the waistband straps 1 /8 and then again 3 /8 from the edges. Wrong side of Waistband Strap FOLD Topstitch 11. Take one of the waistband pieces and fold one of the long raw edges up 1 /2 to the wrong side of the piece. Press the fold. This will be the waistband lining piece. Set aside for now. 13.

Place the waistband lining piece right sides together with the waistband, over the straps and matching the top and side raw edges. Sew across the top long raw edge and down both sides of the waistband, backstitching at the sides to have a secure double stitched seam. Turn the waistband right sides out and press. The waistband lining will be on the back of the apron and the waistband straps will be free. 15. Pin the folded side of the waistband lining over the seam allowance so that all the raw edges are hidden and enclosed in the waistband. Hand sew the waistband lining to the wrong side of the apron. Topstitch the sides and top of the finished waistband 1/8 and then again 3 /8 from the edge to finish. Wrong side of Waistband Lining

Sew (8) of the Fabric A 1 3 /4 squares to (8) Fabric B 1 3 /4 squares. Repeat for the remaining Fabric A 1 3 /4 squares and (8) of the Fabric C 1 3 /4 squares to make (8) two-patch pieces. 2. Sew (4) of the Fabric B squares to the (4) Fabric D squares, and the remaining Fabric B squares to the (4) Fabric F squares to make (8) two-patch pieces. Repeat for the Fabric C squares, sewing them to the Fabric E and Fabric G squares to make (8) two-patch pieces. Cutting All strips are cut across the width of the fabric. From Fabric A (CWEA 200 E), cut: (1) 3 x 42 strip; cut into (16) 1 3 /4 x 3 rectangles, and (4) 3 squares (1) 1 3 /4 x 42 strip; cut into (16) 1 3 /4 squares From both Fabric B (FPIC 456 W) and Fabric C (FPIC 454 W), cut: (2) 1 3 /4 x 42 strip; cut into (16) 1 3 /4 squares and (8) 1 3 /4 x 3 rectangles 3. Sew the Fabric A/B two-patch pieces from step 1 to the Fabric B/D and Fabric B/F two-patch pieces from step 2 to make (8) corner 4-patches. Repeat for the Fabric A/C two-patch pieces, sewing them to the Fabric C/E and Fabric C/G two-patch pieces to make (8) corner pieces. From each Fabric D (FPIC 455 R), Fabric E (FPIC 455 O), Fabric F (FPIC 456 T) and Fabric G (FPIC 456 AU), cut: (1) 1 3 /4 x 42 strip; cut (4) 1 3 /4 squares and (1) 1 3 /4 x 34 strip (1) 1 3 /4 x 5 rectangle From Backing and Insul-Bright, cut: (4) 8 1 /2 squares
4. Sew the Fabric A 1 3 /4 x 3 rectangle to the Fabric B and Fabric C 1 3 /4 x 3 rectangles, to make (8) of each. 8. Take the 1 3 /4 x 5 rectangles and fold the long edges 1 /4 to the wrong side and press. Fold in half lengthwise and edgestich the folded side closed to make a strip. Fold the strip in half to make a loop and baste the raw edges together. Sew the loop to the wrong side of the potholder in one of the rounded corners, matching the raw edges of the loop with the potholder. 5. Sew the Fabric A 3 squares, corner pieces, and rectangle pieces together as shown, matching fabrics, into four individual blocks. 9. Bind each potholder using the matching 1 3 /4 x 34 strip. Fold the loop up so it extends past the finished curve of the potholder and stitch in place at the binding seam. 6. Place the shiny side of the Insul-Bright square against the wrong side of the backing. Place a single or double layer of regular batting on top of the Insul-Bright, then place one of the blocks right side up on the batting. Stitch in the ditch to secure the layers. Minimal quilting is recommended to keep the integrity of the Insul-Bright intact. A double layer of batting will be more heat resistant than a single layer. The potholders are heat resistant when the backing side is placed against the hot object. Use caution and common sense when handling hot objects. Not for use by children. Wash in cold water and hang to dry. 7. Take a large spool of thread or similar round object and place it in the corner of a block. Trace around the spool to mark the round corners. Round all four corners of each block as shown and trim.
