My “Cookin in Color Serger” Apron
I had been eyeing this cute cherry print fabric for some time. One day at work I noticed the fabric was almost gone. Thinking to myself, “it’s now or never,” I bought the small piece of fabric that was left on the bolt. There it sat in my stash, patiently waiting for the perfect project to come along. And along it did. The pink cherry print fabric graduated from stash to apron. :)

The Pattern
Sue O’Very’s pattern, Cookin in Color Serger Apron, is designed for serger construction. Throughout the pattern, you learn to serge with different techniques, feet and attachments, and the end result is a fun color-blocked apron. For me this pattern was definitely worth making. Now that I have serged my apron, I can say that cooking in my kitchen has never been so colorful!
Highlights of Serging with this Pattern
- Applying the pocket zipper using a serger cording foot. What a great way to install a zipper!
- Creating the hanging loop using the belt loop binder attachment. I love the belt loop binder, and I will definitely share more with you in future posts.
- Embellishing the waistband and ties with Babylock’s exclusive wave stitch. With the right thread, this stitch is gorgeous!

Time to Inspire You
I love to learn new things, don’t you? Would you like to learn to better use your serger? Do you already own the feet and attachments needed for this project? Are you willing to invest in a few feet or attachments to better broaden your serging horizons? If you answered yes to any of these questions, this pattern may be for you. The more you do with your serger, the more skilled you will become.
