A friend of mine gave me a Simplicity 8230 pattern a while back, and I wanted to try making it.
I didn't make two of them. I made it reversible.
I often make changed to the pattern, and this time was no exception. I made it reversible, and I changed the fastening method and pockets. The original pattern had tabs on the sides to close the front and back bodice together. But I used buttons only. Also, The original pattern had one large pocket in the front, but I put two. Just simple changes, but they make this apron fit me better.
