It’s that time of season to harvest plums and apples in my neck-o-the Woods…
So what’s a gal to do… make a few harvest aprons of course!!

Grace I love that style of apron, that’s the first one I have seen like that.
A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel.

Grace, I love your apron. Even the colors are so pretty. Is that a big pocket for you to put your apples and plums?

Why yes it is, Krista...
I decided not to sew down the middle, that way it would be easier to put the apples/plums in with out restricting space.
This is from a Simplicity pattern, #2492 dated 2009
Super easy peasy and doesn't require a gazillion yards of fabric.

Is there a pattern for this apron or is this one of your magic creations? Do you have a plum tree? I'd love to have one!

I don't have a plum tree at this house, but I have 2 friends who have Italian Plums ... and we swap apples for plums.. I have 1 grafted apple 2 types of apples on the tree,, Unfortunately I do not know what type they are because the original owner planted it..
They yucky apples we give to the horses and the deer make short work of the rest... I usually just hollow out my apples, sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar and put into the microwave for a quick snack.
I also make apple sauce, so easy peasy,, depending on how many apples I have, I simmer them with a couple of table spoons of water and a pinch or two of sugar and cinnamon and a squeeze of lemon juice.,.. I don't use an exact recipe as I prefer to cook by taste.
Depending on how many plums I get, I make a simple Pflammen-kuchen,, in otherwards a plum short cake. That is, if we don't eat all the plums first! lol!

This is another one that is fun and easy peasy… but I don’t know if it is available anymore. I bought it at a quilt shop back in Clovis California.
I chose to make the hem straight not scalloped. I I was for a apron swap I did. years ago on another site.

Grace,
How cute! Pretty sure I have that pattern. Going have to dig it out. There aren't enough hours in my days for everything I want to do!

Denise, I hear ya!
That's why I often will modify a pattern (or recipe)..
For the 'Polka Dot' apron, I did a straight hem and edge in the apron swap. and it still turned our cute.
I swear, I have more 'Projects' then I have time!!!! lol!

Grace, do you wear your aprons? I love aprons, but I always get more on my tops than my bottoms. If I think to wear anything protective it is a sleeveless over-shirt. That pattern is WAY cute!!!

Connie, really do wear my aprons… not every day but when I am doing full blown cooking, like Rouladen and Spätzle or baking.
I have 2 that hang in the pantry… I wear them both, my favorite… both are full bib aprons…
One was a gift and the other is a sweet little apron I bought from a very delightful elderly lady at our church craft fair about 15 years ago.

You only wear 2 Grace? - that surprises me! I picture you wearing a bunch of them. Thanks for the info on the pattern. The polka dot pantry one looks super cute. Hopefully I'll get some time to sit down and sew soon. Not that I need another apron but.....

I love all the aprons, ladies. I have a few as well on my apron holder my dad made me a handfew years ago, inspired by MJ's rolling pin apron holder. My father in law always comments on my aprons when he finds me in one. :-)
