Childs apron material?
Question:what is the best/cheapest material to use for a childs apron?
Answers:
Are you going to sew this? A quick and easy child's apron can be made out of a cheap plastic table cloth and seam binding around the edges. This is waterproof and quick. Another idea is muslin and let them put hand prints on it with fabric paints. Most cotton fabrics run about $2.99-399 a yard. That is another choice. Go to a fabric store and have fun!
I always use a kitchen towel to which I sew a neck-loop and two waist-ties.
Anything that is water repellent and soft. If you go to a regular fabric store you will find something. How about denim or duck, but it depends on if your child will be using liquid or water. Please do NOT use anything like plastic wrap.

Bring your child to Home Depot when they have their monthly kid's class on a Saturday morning. They hand out free kids' aprons like they ones the salespeople use.
If you are looking for a disposable apron, try using a garbage plastic bags, cut the holes for the head and the arms. They come in different sizes, so you can find a proper size for your child. Some come with plastic strips as tiers that you can use to tie it at the child's waist.
There are many left over materials ( 1 meter ). Look for them in fabric stores. Quilted, flannel or fun animal prints. Have her
pick the print she likes. This way it will be the most special
thing you have given her. Buy a pattern with 3 different sizes,
you will have it for a long time. One that ties around the neck
and waste. Good Luck
