Little girl (or boy) apron

 A simple little apron that I put together to add to a raffle we did to raise money at my son's kindy.  My daughter who modelled it, didn't want to let it go!  I am keen to make a few of these for my stall and hope that they are a hit.  Not sure what price I should ask for them though.  That's my problem, I never want to charge too much as I hate going to markets where homemade craft items are overpriced.  I have the template I used to make this if anyone wants it please let me know.

Todays project


After a week of not doing much towards my planned projects, other than fabric shopping I have finally felt like trying one of them. Having only started back into sewing in the last couple of months I am trying easier things (supposedly) but keep getting carried away.

Today I decided I was finally going to make my clothes peg apron that I have been talking about for so long. I was getting tired of the kids throwing my pegs around the back yard and leaving them to get dirty!

I adapted a pattern that I found on the web and am pretty happy how it has turned out, aside from a few wonky stitch lines! Would you believe that the bias binding is probably 30 years old, I found it in my mum's stash I forgot I had and she has been gone for over 20 years!

I picked out the front panel fabric last week at Spotlight as it just screamed out to me "Apron"

Here it is!
