Goodbye old apron...hello new!



















It's been a great 12 or more years but it's time to say goodbye.  One of my best friends (Emily!!) and I made similar aprons when we were in college. I think it's funny that our idea of a fun evening was to hang out, head to Joann's and play around with fabric and our sewing machines!  It's STILL one of my favorite things to do (although I wish we could do it together!!!) Anyhow, Emily doesn't have her apron anymore but it's been my one and only apron since then. It's treated me well but it's time I finally moved on. 

I picked out some fun new fabric from Walmart a couple of weeks ago but I couldn't decide how I wanted to make it.  I went with easy and made up my own design. LOL I have never been very good at following directions. ;) Anyhow, it turned out a little big...but that's ok...more protection from food stains! It was an easy project and I am thinking I might try a fancier apron next time (sooner than 12 years from now! I need a few in different colors!)


Do you use an apron????

  4. I don't where an apron. I need one that wraps all the way around me to cover the front from splatters and the backside from where I wipe my hands on my toosh as I cook!! Very cute!

    I made an apron in 7th grade home ec for my mom! She still has it...that was way more than 12 years ago, and I have one that is a bib style that my grandmother made in the 70s! I don't think they go bad or out of style...so I would keep your old one...too many memories!
