More on Aprons….
I came across this blog entry by MrsCatherine. As I have mentioned before (and you can see more about my opinion on aprons on my homemaking page), I love to meet other people who love aprons as much as I do! Check it out - it is really good!
When we arrived back in Australia, my dear friend Robyn had a pressie for me from when she went to Europe to visit her middle son. She found this piece of fabric in France, and thought of me!
Isn’t that sweet? She knows I like blue!
She bought it for me with an apron in mind. Before our shipment of “stuff” arrived from the Middle East, I used it as a table runner.
It looked lovely! Then I finally bit the bullet and cut out an apron:
I’m afraid to say, that’s as far as it got until today, when I finished it! I get a bit distracted with things always, sometimes, often……
Here it is all done:
It’s just a simple pattern. I’m not one for frills, but I do like pretty fabric. This is pretty, but functional. Now I need to make one for Elizabeth….!



I love the apron. I like blue too! I also want to make some aprons. That’s on the list of the many things I want to sew!
I reloaded those pictures. I don’t know what’s wrong with them. They were fine when I went to bed last night. Maybe they’ll be ok now. Thanks Joy!
Hugs, Debbie J.

I love aprons too! I’m picky about mine, though. They need to be the smock type to keep me completely tidy. The fabric your friend sent you is gorgeous! Enjoy it!
