I am trying to find a childs apron pattern. It is Simplicity 7064 dated 1975. If anyone has this pattern and would like to get rid of it, I am willing to pay for the pattern and shipping. |

You might find it on one of the vintage pattern websites. Try www.risingfeenix.com as I have ordered from them and was very satisfied. Hope this helps. Marty

Is this the one??? http://sewuniquetreasuresandgifts.ecrater.com/product.php?pid=1180915 That is the one. I found one on Ebay which was a size 6.....this one is a size 4. Would it be possible for me to downsize or upsize this pattern? Or should I have to purchase the pattern in different sizes? I hope this makes sense lol. I am only interested in the apron. Thanks so much for your help. |

I think the apron would be very easy to adjust. It isn't a fitted garment, so depending on the measurements of the child, you may only have to add a little to the length, and maybe a tad at the shoulders. I would compare the child's measurements with those given on the back of the pattern envelope and decide from there. The differences between sizes 4 & 6 are only one to two inches...that's only an additional 1/4to 1/2 inch to each side of front and back pieces.
Take care,

That is what I was thinking. I would be making this for my daughters which are 3 and 5 years old. The 3 year old is kind of thick and sad to say her waist is the same size as my 5 year old and her chest isn't far behind lol. I believe just adjusting the length and shoulders would work. Thanks alot!! |
