chicken apron...finally complete!



Why yes, it did take me quite some time to stitch up my chicken apron...

Days turned into weeks...

Weeks turned into months...
                
Holidays came and went...


Need I say more? Time flies!
And so, here she is...


Next on the agenda is
turning these adorable flour sacks into aprons!




If I want them in time to welcome spring,
I'd better begin stitching now!

Happy Friday!

  1. Oh I love it ! I am yet to attempt to make my own aprons or pinny as my mum whom was British called them ! I want to get all kinds of country prints and go nuts with making aprons but never have been to crafty with sewing by hand or the machine I guess practice makes good then right ? Do you go by any patterns or do you do your own pattern? Cant wait to see the next apron/pinny ! Have a great day !

    1. Oh you're too kind...thanks Country Gal! Actually, I'm not that good of a seamstress (don't look closely!) I'm very impatient and want the project done NOW! Which is funny considering how long it took me to finish this apron! It was oh-so easy, it came in an apron kit...fabric & pattern all together. I have some pretty calico I want to turn into a full-length pinafore...I'll need a pattern for that, but easy aprons, like a simple gathered rectangle can be stitched up in no time...give it a try and let me know how it turns out!
