Fun & Frilly

With a friend’s birthday already one day behind, I went through my many apron patterns and stash of fabric and TADA! A gift for said friend, a day late! It’s a Simplicity pattern that calls for piping, which I was surprised I actually had on hand and I think it gives it a very professional look. I just love the combination of the cherry and polka dot fabric. The pocket is lined in the polka dot and then I turned it over to expose some of that cute fabric.

I am trying to get motivated to make more gifts for the ever increasing family, which I totally forgot to mention that there is a new girl that has just been added, Adele Grace. She has the cutest little face! Oh gifts, that’s right! Christmas is fast approaching and I must start getting into gear if I’m going to make some gifts this year, which is what it looks like I’m going to have to do because of the new business and all. Don’t get me wrong, it’s going really well, Jay has too much work to get done in a normal business day, it’s going to take time to see some profit I’m sure. It’s all very exciting! With that said, I’m going to have to get creative in many ways, which can be a plus for this blog. I’ll have more to share around here in the crafty department.

I was thinking of doing the same thing for christmas–gift making that is. I was thinking of making aprons…. Your stuff is always beautiful. Glad to hear business is good.
I love the turned down edge on the pocket. Super cute!
Yay for new babies and continued craftiness! I really love the color and pattern combination in this apron. Nicely done.
