I'm blowing the dust off my sewing machine...and
I just ordered this fabric from
so I am serious, I'm going to make an apron. A challenge for me.
My inspiration? I follow Cosmopilitan Cornbread, now known as AGoodLifeFarm, wears these lovely aprons all the time, and she had a tutorial on her you tube channel for making one. She has quite a few of them. She is not a seamstress or even an avid sewer, and she makes these aprons, which I have come to find out are the crossover aprons, they cross in the back. I kept putting it off because I couldn't find just the right material for the apron. Until today. and this lovely is on the way or will be..
If you've not ever visited with Constance, please stop over her place.
I'm still working on the dresden plate block. It's a slow go.
That's my story for today, I'm sticken to it.
Good luck with the apron. That's nice fabric and I'm looking forward to you modeling the apron once you're done.
ReplyDeleteLuck is precisely what is required. It is pretty fabric though. We'll see what me and my 1955 Singer can do.
DeleteWhat gorgeous material for an apron. I used to wear one all the time but have got out of the habit. My clothes show this as when I bake I get covered in flour.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I have 2 and wear them once in a while, and my clothes also take a hit.
DeleteHello Faith ... I am enjoying catching up on all your recent posts. You have been busy & the candle you made turned out lovely. I look forward to seeing the apron you create.
ReplyDeletethanks Julie, I "sound" busy. Most of it is thinking busy, although I do have the Dresden started, I like to think about having things to create. I hope I get the apron done, it is pretty fabric.
DeleteThe highlighted words didn't link to the site. I would love to see the apron. I have 2 that I wear all the time, but want one that has criss-cross backs on them. I'm not motivated enough to try and make one myself lol. Can't wait to see yours.
ReplyDeleteThe links are located on/around the blog, and I updated the so if you click on the link, it should open up and you can see all her videos. It really doesn't "look" difficult. We'll see me and Singer have work to do. :)
DeleteP.S. I absolutely love the fabric!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I thought it would make a great apron. I hope I get it done.
ReplyDeleteOh yay! I've been trying to find an apron pattern I like - I just keep trying:-) Thanks for the link, will take a peek. Hope you will share yours with us also.
ReplyDeleteWell I hope you like this one, there are no ties, it crosses in the back and has 3 pockets. We'll have an apron party.
ReplyDeleteChicken fabric is my favoerite. I'm an apron lover too. Can't wait to look at her video...and see your apron. It will be so cute made from that fabric.
