My Absolutely Adorable Apron

 
 
 
 

Securing her position as the best mother on the planet my mom made me this charming little vintage apron.  I adore it!

Tipnut is one of those websites that you can lose time on, they have so many patterns. If you have the talent or a mom like mine take a peek here.
In this economy we are all tightening our apron strings Tipnut has a tip...


"When the collars and cuffs are frayed beyond redemption, use the rest of the shirt for aprons–little tie-arounds or larger ones. Patterned fabrics can be used from one shirt to edge an apron cut from another. Attractive combinations can be worked out." 

This could be a lot of fun, there are so many funky shirts out there! It would also make a lovely memento.  Give a newlywed an apron made of her groom's shirt.  I miss my grandpa every day, I wish I had an apron made of one of his Sunday shirts.

This may be the day a seamstress was born!
