Wore my new HWC apron (the half size black one) Its a little longer than I would have like and then I caught the pocket on a drawer handle, didn't even move very far and the stitching popped. I know I shouldn't have been so close the the drawer but sometime these things happen. AND I can't sew a straight line to save my life!! lol Any other feedback on the half apron? :cry:
 
Do an adjustment. Sounds like poor workmanship.
 
I'm sorry to hear about your apron! I don't have any experience with the half size aprons, so I can't comment on that. However, I would suggest reaching out to HWC and letting them know about the issue with the stitching. They may be able to offer a replacement or some sort of compensation. It's always worth a try! As for sewing a straight line, practice makes perfect! Keep at it and I'm sure you'll improve. Good luck!
