Here Comes the Rain Again

And I'm indoors.  Between the bouts of rain, I get some things done outside, but not everything I'd like.  So, I'm trying to make the most of it--I went back into my sewing room.

And made ANOTHER apron!
(forgive the crummy pictures)
One side

Other side


This one is Scalloped Apron from the Paisley Pincushion.  I will say this for it: great directions, absolutely a pleasure to put together.  However, the sizes are a bit extreme.  If you're not a B, you're an A, and the jump in the sizes is pretty big.  I made the A because I like a little room in my aprons, but it's really huge on me.  So I have a lot of room. The shoulders don't fall down, though, so that's a huge plus.  I can't be bothered to pull my apron up every ten seconds when I'm working.  That defeats the purpose of the apron.

There you have it.  I'm keeping busy(ish).  Now I need to spend some time looking at ways to display these babies.  I've got quite the collection going!

  1. What a great apron! Your fabric selection or did it come with the pattern? Love the choices. I've been fending off an apron-fetish for the longest time. The only reason I'm succeeding so far is I've got enough on my plate already. So, I'll live vicariously through you, ok? Thanks! I knew you'd understand!!!
