I Did A Little Sewing This Week

One of my online friends asked me if I could make her an apron. I went through the patterns I have  and took pictures of them and this is the one she chose. I think it is really cute, but I have never made this one before. I got the pattern at a thrift shop for 10 cents several years ago.  All the pieces were there except for the bell appliques.

It took me a while to get it done, as I am still very slow, and sewing still gives me pain. But I enjoyed every minute of making this cute little apron:

Those little flower appliques are so cute, don’t you think?  If you want one of these, I can make them for $25.

    I love old patterns too. It’s what you do with the fabrics that really makes a difference. Your apron is so cute.

    That is a very cute apron! I like making aprons, too. I make them mostly for church fairs and giving away as gifts, look for material not expensive but good for an apron. I have one or two patterns, wow, I just realize how old they are!

    This is so nice! I used to make aprons all the time, and give them as gifts or for church fairs. I should start making some again, everyone appreciates and loves a handmade apron! Hard to come by now!
