Anna from Yards & Yards shows how to make this adjustable apron. The loop that goes around the neck and the side ties are actually the same piece of fabric run through some casings. Not only does it give the apron an adjustable neck strap, but it also means that you only have to tie one set of straps when you put it on. Brilliant!! Want to make one? Go to the tutorial.

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!
It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.
Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
Wow, this great, I love the ease of this design, thanks for sharing!
Wow! Thanks so much for the feature! It really means a bunch!
Hopefully this tutorial will come in handy to some of you crafters. I LOVE those adjustable straps! Happy Sewing!
