Hello sweet friends!
I finally finished the two aprons you peeked at last week...
Everyone... allow me to introduce to you, Miss Jenny. A fun loving gal who loves to lounge in the sun with a good book and goes bowling every Thursday night with her girlfriends...
I love the big rosette. The combination of patterns and color just makes me smile. Such a playful piece, one to not to take seriously... just enjoy and be happy!

And here's my ultimate favorite!
Please meet Miss Francine. A lovely woman... so soft and delicate is she...

This one is my best yet. A simple design of a classic slip dress, made into an apron. It drapes, giving a soft silhouette of your body.
This can definitely be worn as a blouse. Can you imagine... warm summer days, wearing this with capris and flip flops... ((sigh))
The straps are little long to give you the option of a cross back. Also, the sides and back panels are higher to give you that extra support.
I kept the detailing to a minimum. Keeping the overall look clean and simple. The fabric is a JoAnn's exclusive. I'm pretty impressed with some of their fabric... not bad!
***
So Miss Jenny will be going in the shop later this evening and as for Miss Francine... well... I have a special surprise for you! I'll announce the "news" this Wednesday so please check back!!!
p.s. Don't forget to stop by tomorrow as well for my tutorial!
Take care!
Oh my goodness... your blog is AMAZING! So glad you posted on my blog and I found you!

If all else fails the interested buyer will probably bid on it anyway.
