I was once again a very busy lady on Friday. I'm not sure where all the focus and energy came from, but I'm sure glad it did, because I knocked this darling apron out without a hitch.
This is my first apron... I know how popular they are these days, and I've seen some wonderfully complex, fancy and detailed examples out there. While I don't pretend to have a very complicated pattern, I was pretty darn proud of myself for my pattern-making and sewing prowess on my first attempt. You can download the .pdf tutorial here- and it will reside in my downloads tab over on the left column.
If you make one, I'd love to see it!!
