An apron

I swear I am working on those pillows! It's just that I needed a quick gift for someone special this weekend and an apron seemed just the thing. An autumn apron in apple red (yeah, I know, branch out already right?) with plaid ties and ruffles and a rosey pocket. Some big vintage ric rac was the  finishing touch.
Ok, now I'm off to work on those long awaited pillows....right after I hit the Farmers Market.  It's only open for two more weeks, a girls gotta enjoy it while she can:>) Have a great weekend everyone!

  1. What a sweet apron! I have some apron projects planned for gifts and I'm debating whether or not I can share them on my blog. Don't think the gals will peek in and see them. If they do, they will know immediately who they are for! Thanks for sharing yours today. ~Adrienne~

  2. Kaaaathhhyyyyy, I love that little apron!! You've got to read my post today, sugar! I've got about 9 of them so far cut out and ready to teach a church group on making/designing their aprons. You and I think along the same lines when it comes to putting them together though, honey. Darling, just darling.....

  5. So cute....I love the bottom of the apron...Do you know of any transfer fabric..you know the kind you can use in your printer....that is washable....I have a great sign that I want to print on fabric then make a butchers apron with but all I can find is the fabric that is non-washable....

  15. Love the apron-but aren't you the gutsy one to post it on your blog? If it's for who I think it's for, she might see it. Or did you already deliver it?
