My apron is done…

It’s not perfect, but there were a lot of things that I had never done before as I was sewing. It was not a pattern for beginners. It looks ok, but I notice all the wrong things.

How’s the progress on your apron coming along?

There’s an Apron in my Future

Filed under: first along — Tracie @ 10:04 pm

There’s an apron in my future; I just don’t know yet what it’ll look like. There’s several I want to make, but I haven’t decided. Recently I bought this pattern from Joann’s when they had their Simplicity pattern sale: Misses Wrap Around Apron. But then I have The Apron Book, which has some cute ideas in it.

I know. I’m making this more complicated than it needs to be. Maybe tomorrow I’ll get something decided so I can get started.

So, what’s your apron status?

I cut out my pattern and my fabric.  Tomorrow I’ll doing the sewing marks and sew it.  I will probably have a finished apron tomorrow night.  :)   Go me.  :)   Is it sad that I’m already looking at the patterns and fabric in my stash and trying to decided which other aprons I want to make.  :)

Have a great one!

T minus six and counting….

Filed under: Uncategorized — barbknits @ 2:13 am

According to West Coast Time (oh, ok, Pacific time), it will be February 1st in six hours. As much as I’d like to stay up and watch the day change, I won’t. I’m going to be asleep. :)

I will be sewing my apron this month. I found this apron pattern posted on another message board. She made the black multi colored one on the bottom and it was just so stinking cute. I ran to Joanns and bought myself this fabric for the body and some solid red for the ties and detailing.  I am so excited to cut it out and start making it.

In addition to that apron for me, I would also like to make some aprons for my boys, either for Easter gifts or Christmas gifts.

Glad you came and joined us!  I look forward to seeing what you create!  :)
