Is it difficult to sew for making aprons?

It is not difficult to sew on oil cloth. I had the book about sewing on oil cloth. I am on vacation now so I cannot remember the exact title or author. I followed the advice and purchased a roller foot which, although expensive, was well worth the money. I made several art aprons. I used the pattern from this book and adjusted it to fit my needs.

I think an apron would be easier than what I made (lunch bags). Just make sure you use a Teflon presser foot because it might stick to a metal foot.

I would think so if you request them to send u just the apron. I hope this helps. :)

I think it will be too long. You could get it tailored from the bottom and take in the top strap but it's an adult sized apron.

Hi Sarah:I believe this apron is machine washable, but you can easily clean it by wiping it with a damp cloth.

Yes Ask anyone with sewing machine.May have to trim insulation pad 3/8 in. or so to tuck fabric in for seam.

No, this would be a great fabric to use. My regular old Brother sewing machine had no problems sewing this material

If you could re-sew the seem you created I'm sure you could but it's definitely not designed for that. The fabric is thick but it's a fairly large weave and would fray if cut (and not re-sewn).

Yep, it would not be difficult make your own. I purchased one and really like it. It is well made (in the USA, too!) but if you are handy with a sewing machine it would be pretty simple to make one.

It's very hard to cut and sew cuZ the hair is long so it's pretty massy but if ur dedicated I'm sure you can make it work

i have done, pleathers, fleece blankets (double thick) totes quilt blocks with top and bottom and the padding inside~~ if doing something really think like the purse totes, I slow my speed down and "babysit" the machine~~ I sit and watch :)... but 2 layers of the thick blizzard fleece from joann's will fit under the needle and yes u can embroider on them..

The one marked "light" or "sewable" doesn't gum up your sewing machine. The other one is very difficult to sew.

I honestly can't answer the question. We used the aprons for baking in the kitchen not painting. The stuff that we used in the kitchen didn't seep through to their clothes. I'd assume the paint won't either, but not 100% sure. I hope someone else can answer your question better than I can.

sorry i didn't really try on the apron yet. i can put watercolor paper (size around A4) on the boards.

I also sew - the board bends a bit. I'd be reluctant to apply too much pressure. I use my regular board that is set up in my sewing room.

I just got mine today. It looks & feels good. My only worry is that it won't be enough for a full sew in.

Ditto on the sewing point made below - although that could be tough on fuzzy socks.

Yes!! You can customize all of the details of your patterns!! All the way from the type of stitches stitches (can choose to not do any 1/2 or 1/4 stitches, and also can select if you want backstitching), you choose the size, tell it which size fabric you are using, and can also customize to the amount of colors you want to work with... I work on large projects always and this program is perfect for me making my own patterns!!
