No, the gremlins are in Calverton now! Kathie, sharing some stuff is ok, not those little gremlins though! Love the aprons. They are such a great style. Can't wait to make one myself. I have the pattern you sent me in the sewing room just waiting. |

Thank you Girls!!
I REALLY love making this one.. The original one that I have is from my Great Grandmother's Sister.. ( So.. My Great Aunt..)
I have always loved the Apron.. the way it fit.. & the way if fell just right.. I like the retro look to it.. but the fact that no matter what fabric i choose for it.. It Always seems just perfect in this style too!
& it IS unique too.. Not one you see all over the place.. I think all this makes it even more special for me....
Glad you all like them too..

Okay- I am still working on my first apron. The skirt came out all wonky so I had to rip that seam and re-do it, and I don't know what I was thinking- but I forgot to make a finished seam- I just hemmed the cloth so it frayed. So I had to trim a bunch of annoying threads and I am re-sewing the exposed hems to make it be nice and finished. I wondered if that was what I was supposed to do when sewing...but the directions didn't specify and I was worried about seam allowance- Oh well! :D I promis a picture later today!

are you putting any kind of trim or backing on it? didnt you say it was out of some asian type brocade? this is the one you have been talking about for a couple of months, right? alee...you have endless amounts of sheets, use one of the sheets and make a backing, or that brocade is gonna drive you batty dear! |

I did Somewhat Cheryl.. It's bits of an old Apron that my great Aunt had given me.. She'd made it So I'm guessing the Apron is from the 40's maybe.. (one of my Grandmothers Sisters..) so i drew it up.. & have just made my own pattern from it..

Hey, It's really my anniversary today, that's better than Bev's lame attempt at "forging" her B-Day! I should be showered in aprons! HA! I know what ya'll are going to say, "you can sew, git bizzy!" I thought I'd be more of a crybaby to Kathie. She's an expert at dealing with crybabies. ROFL!
