An Apron

I am joining up with It’s a T-Sweets Day for her SAL.  (#3 daughter is the model!)

I used the chosen fabric “Pom Pom Flowers in Marigold” by Stella as the accent on the pocket and both the top and bottom of the apron. .The other fabrics I just had laying around the studio.  I used the pattern “Strawberry Licorice” by Sew Much Good.  I had seen the finished apron on It’s a T-Sweets Day and LOVED it.  I knew I just had to have one for myself so I bought the pattern right then.  Once I had the mystery project fabric, I decided to incorporate it into the apron.  I made a couple of changes…

 

I top stitched around the straps and the top and bib of the apron.

 

I also added a zig zag stitch on both sides of the ric rac and made the pocket straight so that I can use it more easily.

This pattern is well written and easy to follow!  It was not a problem to copy and tape the pieces of paper together.  My oldest daughter really likes it so I’m thinking of making her one to give her when she gets a place of her own.

This mystery QAL was hosted by Tracy at It’s a T-sweets Day and you can send her your information if you would like to join along next time.  Please take a look at the others participating in this QAL.
