As promised, I've published two new #FreeSoftWear patterns: the apron and sleeve protectors I've finished last weekend.

A person dressed in mostly late 1800 clothing with a black apron with a gathered front and triangular side panels that wrap to the sides of the shirt, plus a bib pinned up on the shirt, and black sleeve protectors. There is a chatelaine pinned at the waist with an Ada Lovelace pin, with fake punched cards, a pencil and steampunkish pendants.

I have questions about the structural safety pins.

they are historically accurate for the late victorian era

(now that I think about it, I should probably mention that in the instructions, thanks!)

also, I don't like the feeling of the strap behind the neck in most aprons, and I wanted to try something different :)

I wanna know what kind of shirt you're supposed to be pinning that to - most shirts I know would fall apart in a heap with that kind of load. it's definitely a comfier option than the neck strap though fer sure

The apron also has a waist belt, the pins only get the load of the bib, not the full strap and most importantly not of whatever ends up in the pocket.

The shirt I was wearing is a relatively flimsy one in cheap cotton voile that I made myself, so it's probably still sturdier than an average fast-fashion shirt? :( also it's in woven fabric and not knit, which helps.

had no idea I’d been waiting for “soft wear” as a pun for this long. Thank you!
