I love this cheerful apron! It has a lovely flounce, uses red piping in the flounce/apron seam and also in the apron hem. CUTE! And it uses bias tape to make the waistband and waist ties.
The original pattern instructions wanted me to use piping to outline the pocket, but I decided to do something a little different that would allow me to bring in some coordinating fabrics and add a flirty touch as well.
Below, you will find instructions to make this boutique-style pocket as well as a pdf of my customized pocket pattern pieces. Enjoy!

#13Stitch around the sides and bottom curve with a 1/2" seam. Make sure to leave an opening along the bottom so you can turn this pocket right side out.

#14Trim seams. Clip corners and notch curves. (This helps it to shape better when you turn it right side out.)

Turn pocket right side out and press. You could hand sew the "cube tube" in place to prevent it from slipping later. Pin pocket to the apron and sew in place by stitching close to the edge around the pocket's sides and bottom.
Thanks so much for reading. I hope you get a chance to try this pocket tutorial on your next apron or even a cute skirt!
