    Hi All-

    Does anyone have a link to a tutorial that will show me how to create an apron using yardage? I can't seem to find any tea towels that are just plain white around here, so I thought I could get some white cotton and just make one myself..but maybe harder than I thought? I plan to give them to the cafeteria workers in my school..have to tie dye them too!

    Thoughts?? thanks!
