Here are a couple pictures of the half apron I re-designed for my MIL
Made with 100%cotton and it is fully lined with two deep pockets.
Sorry, the pictures don't do it justice, I wish I was better at that!

JOANNA,
That is so pretty, I love that you lined it, and deep pockets are the best on an apron.

Thank you! I made the pockets deeper, since she carries things like seed packets, tissue, clothes pins etc. I remember she would complain that "the pockets are never big enough to hold much of anything"
I love a lined apron too, somehow it has a "glamorous feel" when it is lined. Just thought she could use a little pampering.  Glad you like it.

I like the apron, great job! I never thought about lining one, I think
that's a good idea. Can I be your mother in law, too? |

Yes! I am in Scranton....it's a big city. Avoca is very close but we never see anyone wearing an apron unless it's at their job and they have to...lol
I would LOVE to start seeing women wearing their aprons to the store...!

Your apron is so pretty. Love the fabric and the deep pockets. Your MIL is sure to love it.
Look forward to your next creations!

Thank you! An Yes, she loved it!! Tucked a package of morning glory seeds ( an heirloom variety) into the pocket along with a home made card. When we talked with her yesterday, she already had the seeds soaking and the container ready for planting them!
She even said," I have never seen a lined apron before! It is just to pretty to wear. . ." So I assured her it is machine washable and dryable for years of service. . . after all, an apron "wants" to be worn, not be tucked away in a drawer!  LOL! She agreed.

I am so glad she like it.....of course she would, because it was one classy apron, and I love the lining. Linings make everything easier to wear, don't you think? Good job.
