Sew This: T-shirt Applique Apron!
I needed a crafty uniform for an event we did last month so I decided to whip up an apron using my Mod Podge t-shirt and some fabrics. BTW - the uniform was my idea....sometimes I get sick of packing new outfits. I traced an apron that I had for the pattern and got busy stitching! I used lots of pom-pom trim and rickrac trim. I think this concept would be pretty cute with old rock and roll tees or sports tees.
Instructions after the jump.....
First, I placed my fabric on the fold. I placed my apron on top of the folded fabric and traced around the apron with a chalk tracing wheel.
Be sure to add seam allowance when tracing.
Cut out along the chalked lines.
Repeat for the lining.
Next I added a strip of webbing that I embellished with rickrac trim to the center front to work as a neck strap. Working right-sides to right-sides, pin the apron fabric to the lining fabric around the outer edge. Sew around the edge. Be sure to leave a 7" opening in the seam for turning. 
Next, I cut out the graphic from my Mod Podge t-shirt. I folded over the edge and attached to teh front with pins. 
SEWING TIP!!! If you are having trouble sewing over sticky iron-on graphics, silk screened images or transfers, place a strip of tissue paper over the image. The presser foot will glide smoothly and your stitches won't get stuck. 
Next I added some trim around the applique.
The finished upper section.
Next, I hemmed some webbing to be the side ties. I made mine extra long because I like to tie in the front.
I pinned them to the sides of the apron and stitched them in place.
I stitched some pom-pom trim to the apron.
Next, I drafted a pocket shape. 
I sewed a lining to the pocket.
I stitched the pocket to the apron and added some rick-rac trim around the edges.
I added more trim to the hem!
