I've had people interested in making the tea towel aprons, so I figured I'd share. :)
Step 1:
Take your open tea towel,upside-down, and put the two top corners together. (I tack them together, so they don't flop around.)

Step 2:
Find the middle of the towel, and measure down four fingers and pin the apron. (If you want the top smaller, that's fine too, but this makes a good average sized top.)
Step 3:
Depending on the size of ribbon you have for your tea towel, you will need to make two pockets down the sides of the pinned towel. Back-stitch at the beginning and the end.

Step 4:
Thread ribbon, enough to go around your neck and to tie in the back, through the newly-sewn pockets. (A good average length for the ribbon is 9 feet.)


Optional:
I have sewn the ribbon at the top, enough room for my neck, so that it doesn't slip too much. 
Simple and easy. If I can do it, you can too! :)

OMG! That's amamzing easy! Who knew? Other than tha fabrt, how much fabric does each one take?
Sorry, baby always hit home when I'm typing so my messages get messed up. I was asking about how many yards of fabric it takes to make one. =)
Rebekah, it's a tea towel. I found mine at Porters, so I'm thinking they're available at craft stores. :)
