- Make your own waxed canvas work apron following this video tutorial. The video shows every step including: how to pattern the DuraWax™ Light Waxed Canvas, how to create pockets and tool loops, how to add accent pieces, how to reinforce the corners, and how to make webbing straps. Sewing waxed canvas is actually fun and easy; hems can simply be creased into the canvas without basting or securing prior to sewing. This video will give you a baseline approach in making a work apron, but you can make as many modifications as you like to fit your needs and style.

Excellent video - great tips and helps! I learned a lot watching this. I'd still pay Sailrite $10-20 for a PDF or paper version, it is a pain to keep stopping and backing up the video...
Perfect!! Just what I was looking for!!!
The waxed canvas from Sailrite is ahmazing!!! 🎉 it’s great to work with!! I made my husband tool roll from the CZcams video and I’d like to make this apron next
Great projects, your how-to videos are the best! Very detailed. Thanks
Love that walking foot sewing machine!
I've now made three of these, using waxed canvas and leather. The instructions you presented are terrific and the aprons came out really nicely. All the work was done on my LSZ-1 Premium, with WorkerB motor. Thank you!
Forgot to mention... your time stamps are wrong. Particularly the first one. Cutting fabric to size is NOT 22 minutes into the video! :)
Thank You. This video was awesome! Great Job and looks spectacular.
Glad you liked it!
I love the suction cup handle for the ruler.
Thank you for the great comment! We're glad to hear that you liked the suction cup handle for the ruler.
Great idea to hold a thick corner with needle nose pliers until the sewing foot is to the corner!
I think this would make a good project kit👍
We did talk about that, but you can do so many things to make it personal, so we decided not to make it a kit. We may change our mind if we get a lot of requests.
I was hoping for a kit also...great project Sailrite!
I love this guys voice he should do audiobooks
Thanks!!!
Looking swanky, Mr. Grant.
That waxed canvas is nice stuff.
Thanks 👍
Great job, after a while you will feel pain and pressure in the neck, I recommend X holders behind the back.
I'm going to do just that. I agree with you.
I like that suction handle. Is that something you carry in your store?
Yep: www.sailrite.com/Easy-Grip-Ruler-Handle
I've been thinking about making one of these out of leather, but think that the hems would be a little problematic. Would you think that leather binding would be a better option for that material? I'd probably only add it to chafe points like the tops of the pockets, neck and sides.
In most cases leather does not need to be hemmed, the raw edges can be burnish to give a finished look.
Hemming is for woven fabrics to prevent fraying. Use a binding for aesthetic effect on leather or similar.
do you have a pattern for this apron??
nice. but BUT suggestion PLeasE kill the annoying music that makes the video a pain to watch all the way thru...thanks
Ahh, I dig that quite a bit.
No thats a good demarcation point.
@@nyetloki ?????? no???? still it is a pain to watch with the annoying music and it is nothing that can change that fact...lol
I like their music!
@@nancykennedy1904 Praise God that we all humans do not have the same taste on things...but still the music in the video is annoying.
