This is a simpler version of the Butterfly design, in an olive tweed with an olive and pink floral print cotton forming the aprin skirt and used in the binding, with button fastening on the front.

This is for a 2 year old, I am working on some adult styles and will post when they are done.I have just finished a rather gaudy version for Valentines in bright red with white love hearts and the apron front, and I am also working on a much more sophisticated Oriental version.
It's a bit hard to see from the images, but you undo the press stud at the back, and the apron front opens up and the whole bottom section folds away, the back part isn't attached to the sleeve, I think it's a trick of the photo!
I shall now publish an entry with a simpler version, this may make it clearer.

I'm not sure about the bit in the back with the button tho'. The part sticking into the sleeve, may be frustrating to wear? Maybe have that shortened up? or have a loop catch for the button in elastic, so it moves with you?
Pretty colors.
