This is a frilly Edwardian Apron, also for the Historically Sew Monthly March 2016 challenge…
The Challenge: Protection- March
Fabric: Cotton Batiste sewn with cotton thread
Pattern: Drafted to look as close to pictures as possible, based off of other aprons for sizing and tried on during construction

How historically accurate is it? As close to the picture as I could get along with comparison to other extant garments
Hours to complete: Total: 5 (Cutting and Sewing: 5)
First worn: Work at Steppingstone Farm Museum, May 2016
Total cost: $18 fabric from my stash, buttons and thread unknown
And the inspiration images…
