Apron Swap.

At last I have finished my apron for the Apron Swap. My swap partner is Stacy from Sew Happy Stacy. I will be posting it out to you tomorrow.

I used a free vintage pattern that I found at SewMamaSew. It is faced with bias tape that I made myself. Can't say I am a fan of bias tape in general. In any case the bias facing doesn't show because I prefer it that way. The apron has 4 nice big pockets in the front, and its a smock style, which is very comfortable to wear.

I really hope she likes. Its not perfect, but I hope she can still enjoy it and wear it. Thanks for the apron swap idea. It was lots of fun.

Now I just cant wait to receive mine in the post!!!

Mothers Birthday

Its my mothers birthday tomorrow, and I thought it would be nice to make her an apron. She said she prefers half to full aprons. So this is what I came up with.

I used some vintage material from the seventies, which I found at my usual shop. I think she will like the flowers Its got two really big pockets on the front. Which is always handy when baking. There is a nice wide waistband, and it ties at the back in a pretty bow.

I made up the pattern myself and it was pretty easy to make. Sure anyone can make an apron, as I've been told!!!! And now to deliver it.
