Add your pockets
Pockets are for both use and decoration. Make patch pockets that are securely stitched and have no raw edges at the top.
Press the side and bottom hems of the pocket first. Then fold the top hem over and stitch in place. Study the most convenient location for your pocket. Baste it in place. Check to see that it is even. Reinforce the top of the pocket with double stitching, as shown in the drawing. Stitching is ¼ inch apart.
Remove gathering stitches and press your apron.
