Pretty Little Apron

I've been wanting to sew an apron for, geeze, forever now.  So, I decided since it's a long weekend, I was going to get it done.  I wanted to make it completely out of left over scraps from previous projects.  I found a stash of partially pieced fabric from a quilt I had made for my mother-in-law.  Perfect!  Love the colors, and I am super excited with how it turned out.  This was my first experience with sewing pleats, love them!


I think I will make some matching potholders to go with it.  Let me know if you sew one up for yourself, and make sure to post pics!

Where I dug it up: honeybearlane

  3. Thank you Laura! I would love to see your creations! I am in the middle of making one for my niece, she's turning 8 today. I was trying to think if I could remember when I was 8, seems like a long time ago!

    God Bless,
    Holly
