Read the Folksy Returns Policy.

I started playing around with shapes to come up with a studio apron that was truly contemporary looking, finally settling on this 'kite' shape with paracord adjustable straps. The 'kangaroo' pocket shape echoes the angles of the apron sides. Working in my studio in hilly-leafy South-East London, I make aprons in small batches using cotton canvas, denim or drill - fabrics that are natural, washable and durable. Careful attention to detail, strength of construction and beautiful stitching result in a quality of finish simply not possible in mass production. I cut fabric economically, minimising waste and saving the small remnants to make one-of-a-kind bags for my ‘Boro Collection’.

What buyers say about In The Making - Aprons

All 17 reviews

  • I already had a lovely bespoke apron for my silversmithing, but I've used that one a decade and it's got a bit baggy. This new one is fabulous. It's really sturdy yet soft denim and 100 denim, so it won't stretch nor be a fire risk The pocket has already rescued a gemstone for me. It arrived promptly, was beautifully packaged and I'm delighted with it. Thank you Lisa.
