I was sinking threads the other night and found a raw edge on the neck piece, where it slides into the body of the apron. I haven&#8217;t decided if I will take that part off and resew it or just use a bit of Fray Check.<\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t decided it I like this apron. I think I am still a little angry at the pattern for being written the way it was. I still have one more to finish (so I have a choice, you know).
