Linen Apron | Beginner Friendly Sew With Me

[@PenelopeHeaven]

I would frolic about and pretend I'm Anne of Green Gables.

[@Berriesofafeather1122]

Yaaaassss big Anne of green gables vibes!! I love the aesthetic! I even have a pinterest board of it!!

[@angelck785]

Thank you for the idea!

[@NiinaO]

Just what I was thinking! ❤️

[@mariong638]

Or Belle from Beauty and the beast. Just needs a blue dress.

[@ajjanus4709]

YES! If she was in this decade, she would be cottagecore

[@Noel.Chmielowiec]

Lucy, you look like a cottagecore queen with this apron, it's so beautiful! Now apron is on my list of things to do, because the only one I have is 20 something years old and I have it since childhood, time for a new one ;) Thank you for encouraging video ;)

[@Urukins]

After a horrible day this was a nice video to come to, your enthusiasm over your creation is adorable and I think well deserved, it looks beautiful, well done Loepsy.

[@edwardtheinsane]

Now you just need to add some cute patch pockets to the front so you can carry all your important items while you do your important cow milking chores. :D

[@xxfirelighterxx]

The buttons aren't too big honestly. The apron is adorable AF

[@streetofdreams4538]

I very much agree--except the f word isn't adorable, being profanity! Comparing like with like would make more sense. :)

[@kerrypoppins5388]

The sewing music is such an adequate selection for this particular piece😁

[@adjusttherain]

Which song is it?

[@ClaraCB5]

I love how excited you are at the end about your apron, you're so cute haha! You inspired me to start sewing and now I want an apron for myself even though I don't have any dress to wear it with x) If you want to change the straps maybe you could sew them inside the waistband for a neater finish, that's what I did when I made a pinafore dress, with buttons on top it could look great :)

[@NeuroimagingClara]

We have the same first name!!!

[@ginabina707]

I’m making a quilt with my mom. I told her we should make aprons to wear while sewing to keep the threads and dust off our clothes.

[@NiniHallow]

I was just looking for a tutorial on this! It must be destiny, I'm totally making it!

[@MoebiusMyDream]

NiniHallow me too! 🤣

[@Berriesofafeather1122]

I love it when that happens 💕💕 I was looking for a tutorial for a Victorian bodice and the. I was blessed with tutorials from someone on insta 💕💕

[@crystalb1435]

ME TOO

[@marieneckermann9765]

Me too! So excited about this 😍

[@HeyCuteEarrings]

I was hoping you would start singing about this provincial life. That Belle cosplay potential.

[@kendallspodcast1915]

Who else thinks shes so genuine and sweet 🥺❤️

[@Jenntully]

I prefer French seams for most things, but for things like the ruffle on the bottom of your apron, I would have used binding. I use the French seams for all structural seams. I've made both a shirt with a ruffled peplum and a dress where I used self made binding tape to cover the raw edges of the gathered parts because I didn't want to loose length with a FS. Yeah, I'm partial to completely finished insides and I do all my sewing by hand, so no serger here either.

[@harper7726]

It looks so good with the pink dress😍

[@SlavaZone]

Firstly, I love the lace top you're wearing in this video! Secondly, my sewing machine AND serger are being serviced right now, this video makes me wish I had them right now!! XD I've been meaning to make an apron for a long time. My hesitation is that I have to do everything "right" ( I have a degree in apparel design, and over 10 years sewing experience) and struggle with just winging it! The result is SOOOOO cute!! ^_^

[@julie-annedorval4755]

So great! this is exactly the project I started the other day and got stuck because I don't understand well patterns yet. But you gave me courage to go back to it! :D

[@ellegilyard1348]

I love this. I think I’m going to make myself one.

[@curledrocksy]

Aw, I love how this turned out♥️ you should get a body mannequin bust thingy to help you with your future projects 🥰

[@Loepsie]

Yep, hoping to get one soon but I need to make room for it SOMEWHERE in this tiny apartment 😂

[@madif9147]

This is so pretty! Definitely gives me confidence that I could make my own linen apron, I bet it would also look pretty with some embroidery on the bodice as well

[@kailcd9270]

[@Emily-mv4cx]

I just got one of these and I literally cannot stop wearing it, they are so cute!

[@sydneyhall8244]

[@dorothyyoung8231]

In the US bodice part of the apron is called the “bib”. Fun project!

[@sallysaindon3752]

Lucy, it is so great seeing your excitement and skill grow with each sewing project you do!!! Also, I don't know how tricky it is for others when it comes to gathers in french seams, but one thing I do is sew the seam regularly, leave the gathering thread in and fold in the raw edges than topstitch at the edge to encase them. It's kind of like a fake french hem and I think it just helps keep the gathering in the right place.

[@asaeparoissien5864]

Hi I have a little question. This is my first time with gathers and ruffles. She said the width of the skirt should be the size of the waist and a half to be able to gather, so is the bottom part two times the size of the waist?

[@queensandvagabonds191]

Oaa, I HAVE some linen left *.* perfect timing for this lovely video!! Thank you, I love your style :)

[@tkno8984]

Oh my goodness that is SO cute!! I wish I could sew, if I could, I would make an apron just like yours.

[@dorothyyoung8231]

Tina Knowlton, an apron is a traditional first project!

[@jaquelinerodriguez7023]

Porfavor podrás anotar las medidas en español? Porfavor Execelente!!!

[@sarahofthemulberrytree]

The details, such as finishings and where/how you attach straps and the waistband has gotten much better! It looks very clean! I love those aprons too they are so cute!!

[@imthespritehobialwaysasksfor]

*I'm just laughing off the idea of how cute granny she'd be 🤣🤣🤣

[@rebeccaharden6018]

You can also do a felled seam. Super easy will look very authentic if your wanting vintage look. Haha. You just mentioned hand felling.

[@evepaludan7713]

I want to make one. Love this! p.s. Next time you draft directly on the fabric, before sewing it together, you could make a paper pattern so you can make it again without all of the measuring! (I just bought a wraparound skirt from the thrift store so I can make a paper pattern from it and copy it since it fits so well.)

[@rereshy5666]

I lovvvvvve it!!!! Please make more sewing tutorials for us beginners ♥️♥️♥️.. ah i love the way it turned out!!

[@mariccananana4838]

I just finished sewing my first apron, thank you for this tutorial

[@bySusuko]

Beatiful and great work! You look like Laura Ingalls!

[@CadenceWren]

Oh god. I need that white lace top. I've been looking for one like that for so long that I gave up and copied a shirt in a similar style I wanted and bought lace to make one 😂

[@shivanisingh-xk6pv]

Hey ,can you make a video on how to sew a Victorian nightgown?

[@melliedearwolf]

Thank you for this video! I'm making an Alice (in Wonderland) costume for a convention in november and this was super helpful and inspiring :D

[@personalsbysara]

I am definitely making this! However I'm kind of confused as to how you attached the front to the skirt?

[@tedmacat]

You have such unadulterated glee at the end, I almost want to make my own linen apron just so I can have the same experience!

[@sarahcompton4134]

Sarah's mother here. Your enthusiasm and charm are very much appreciated and enjoyed. But I do not understand why you make things so hard for yourself. Generations of people who have come before us have already figured out how to sew beautiful garments. Hundreds of these people have written books, made videos, and created patterns in order to share that information with people like you who have interest and aptitude. Why do you not avail yourself of this knowledge? I feel you do yourself and your viewers a disservice by not exploring this wealth of knowledge and putting it into practice. I'll bet there are tailors and seamstresses near you who could teach you in person. Ah, well. There is one piece of advice my daughter and mother, both professional seamstresses, want to offer you: GIve yourself better lighting to work and film in. Look over your machine carefully and see if there isn't one built into it that just needs a new bulb.

[@adriennegonzales2636]

Sarah Compton....'s mother, she does not do her audience a disservice at all. There are other channels that do extensive research portions of their sewing projects. ... Loepsie dives in and shows her audience that's it's OK to just jump in and not be scared to try. Everyone has to start somewhere.

[@selkiemorien9006]

I'm getting "Little House on the Prairie" vibes :D Love the way it turned out and it really fit's right over that dress!

[@violainef6894]

I wanted to make myself one, now I'm in NEED !!! This looks soooooo great !! The cottageCore vibes is everything !

[@kashishafreen3611]

Loved the tutorial 😊😊thank you 😍❤️❤️

[@wendymuir7818]

I like this but it needs a pocket : )

[@ajjanus4709]

The front bit of an apron is called a bib

[@HOSHllYA]

oh my gosh!!! this is adorable and it looks so good with the dress it was really nice to see how excited you were at the finished product bc it's always such a great feeling when the project you're working on turns out even better than what you were expecting :D

[@weronikabieniaszek3959]

It looks amazing ❤️ You’ve made such a great progress in sewing 🥰

Almost screeched with joy to see another sew with me video on my feed 😍🙌 I LOVE what you sew- somehow it aligns up EXACTLY with what I’m currently sewing and gives me such motivation!!

[@foodz8947]

Studio ghibli vibes

[@angelck785]

I have been wanting an apron, and boom, Lucy made a video about it- THE TIMING Quarantine made me bake more, I guess sewing is next

[@wendymoyer782]

Your linen apron is adorable, and a wonderful beginner's project teaching basic sewing concepts. My mother sewed me two aprons way, way back when my kids were babies, and now that she's gone, they are so treasured!

[@MrRandyk2]

I was just looking for a vintage apron pattern to sew for my daughter in law, and am very thankful I found yours-thank you! Love the vintage machine, and creativity!

[@gillianstapleton7741]

It looks lovely - like 1970s Laura Ashley clothes xx

[@charitytanel8107]

Yes

[@sairascreations333]

This is absolutely beautiful and I'm definitely making this. You are so adorable 💕

[@frankjanvari8650]

This is so well done and so super cute! I love these cottagecore vibes

[@nanyanglvr]

I Only Came Here 'Cause Of TLE Class- I Never Understood Anything Since Its Online Class- Thank You For This 😭

[@delll372]

im so happy to see how happy you are with the end result. it's heartwarming 🤗

[@TinaThevarge]

I love it. I've made a few aprons. I tried one like this but my waistband didn’t turn out. This one looks perfect over your dress.

[@shonitagarcia3222]

You did very well, I think it needs pockets. You shouldn't be afraid of trying new things even if they do not come out well the first time. Watch a few tutorials and videos and practice practice practice in order to achieve new ways of mastering your skills. Making buttons and buttonholes, grommets, etc. are very challenging and can take years to master them. It's ok to make mistakes, it is how we learn. Don't be afraid of making mistakes. Think of it as a way to grow from them. And you will be able to become better over time. Do not beat yourself up over the aesthetics of homemade quality. Sometimes, that is what is desired. A homemade quality versus a manufactured quality. Keep up the great job! You could also learn how to dye your fabrics next time in case you have a stash of linen lying about that you would prefer to be a different color. That is also a skill worth learning. I am also still learning it myself and am into making stamps onto the fabric with fabric paints for textile patterns of my own. Good luck to you, and happy sewing.

[@AshleyJoy777]

Oh I love it I’ll have to get better at my sewing skills first because I just started thanks for the tutorial you look Beautiful!

[@hadeel7799]

The cutest apron definitely making this 💕🥺!!!

[@biboubip_lea]

Wow, this is exactly what I wanted to take up as my next project, have you read my mind ? Love the final result 😍 I will recreate your design for sure, I love it 😊 ❤️

[@patriciaromero145]

Thank you! I was able to finish my apron which I started moons ago! I got stuck but your instructions helped me to finally finish it! Yours turned beautiful!

[@annamosli7570]

What kind of music is this? It just sounds a lot like Norwegian folk music using a Hardanger fiddle. Great video!

[@WinkyGirls]

I just love the checkered/gingham you are wearing in the first part of the video, did you make it? It fits you so well! 🥰

[@charaayars4692]

there is a fairly large population in the US that does re enacting as a hobby. Folks research certain time periods and create period costumes for themselves. They gather and recreate times in history for the sake of education and recognition of what our ancestors faced. Is there anything like that in Holland? I watch Townsends on youtube. They have very fascinating videos and include LOTS of hands on things.

[@pauladolam]

does somebody know where i can buy something like this cutie? I don’t have a sewing machine :(((( it turned out really pretty i love it

[@katherinemorelle7115]

I really want a vintage style apron, but I just don’t think I can justify it, given I’d have nothing to wear it for. I’m disabled and can’t cook or clean, and I wouldn’t wear it out. So it’s completely useless to me, unfortunately. I still really want one though. They’re so adorable! Edited to add: I just realised I could make something similar- a pinafore dress! Rachel Maksy has a floor length brown pinafore that I’ve been drooling over for a couple of weeks now. I think I’ll add it to my (ever growing) project list! But I do need to make myself some Edwardian inspired blouses to wear with it first, I think.

[@JustLikeWonderful]

If it makes you happy, it's got a use!

[@cecilyerker]

You could wear it while eating or while brushing your teeth or doing your hair or makeup, depending on your mobility.

[@katherinemorelle7115]

Cecily Erker I’ve decided to make one with a bit of extra lace floof on the sides, and pockets that are more to the front, so I can access them while sitting down. It’ll be my sewing apron, and will protect my (lbh, nightie) from falling threads and stuff. Really wish I’d had one before I sewed a bit of faux fur on to a hooded cape the other day- that stuff goes everywhere! So the apron is now officially on my project list. :)

[@yas6350]

Could you write me what measures you used in writing? I speak Portuguese and it is a little difficult to understand the English language. I really liked the video and I want to make the apron.

[@willowhawkins5728]

my heart swelled a bit seeing that you sew on an old model machine. the only machine i've ever used is the one i inherited from my grandmother. she bought it in 1962 after saving for months to buy it, and it's still in use almost 60 years later.

[@hannamontana123321]

Loved this video! Just wanted to mention that my best friend has posted a new video on her KZbin channel so if you have time please check it out and have a wonderful day❤️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXu9e4RnpdqWqs0

[@channeling2]

I love this! It looks beautiful on you. I’d like to make it, what is the width/length of the waistband? Thanks

[@Firesplayer]

What kind of fabric u used darling?

[@autumnb7983]

I love this series of yours! especially now in lockdown, been sewing quite a few projects and your videos always inspire! x

[@mese45678]

It is beautiful. I would like to make this, but it is hard to guess the size. What are the measurements of the bodice and how long are the straps? Please help me.

[@thegingerunicorn178]

Hello beautiful artist. New subscriber here. Fantastic job gurl

[@crowfaerymori]

I definitely want to make a cute apron! I totally get Ghibli or Anne vibes!

[@samuelwillemart1834]

I really like your work. Me too, although I am a man, I like wearing such aprons.

[@UltimateKelsie]

Did you make the dress you're wearing in this video? If so, I would love to see a tutorial over how to make it if you havent already made one!!

[@s.v.4786]

I looove how this looks, I'm gonna try and make it but it seems so difficult, I'll have to study the video in great detail lol

[@moonkilig3234]

I have a bunch of old white bedsheets from a second hand store in France. And I want to make an apron out of it since i don't think of anything else

[@nanirodriguez4642]

Where do you order your fabric I want to stop buying fast fashion but I can’t find linen or nice durable natural fabric

[@xtremely04]

If she wore a slate blue dress under, she would look like sophie from howls moving castle

[@OldPecanHomestead]

This is gorgeous!! I want to make one now!
