I'm here because my sister has asked for an apron just like Sohla El-Waylly, and since she does not ask for much, it's the least I can do for her.
I went looking for a pattern because sometimes I like someone else to do the drafting.
You may be familiar with Sohla's story

I think it's unkind to sell merch with someone's name if that someone was being underpaid for their 'celebrity' work, but it's a big world

| I did flip the piece to snug it up to the other and leave a bigger leftover piece. I also print on used paper that I decided you did not need to see the other side of. |
used this fabric (from a Beppa sale, deeeeeeep stash I think my sister picked out for me)
 |
| Added some skinny pockets on the sides without being asked. I can take them off if she'd like. |
and it's done
