Who knows how long it'll last, but right now I'm on an apron-making roll! Yup. I'm going off the rails on an apron train. You know, because hand made aprons put you in mind of Ozzy Osbourne, don't they? Especially mother/daughter sets like these:
I love 'em! The fabric is the same as my kitchen curtains, but these aren't staying with me. They're for a raffle fundraiser to benefit a local preschool. Maybe they aren't really Valentine-y, as the title of this post suggests, but check out these bad boys:
Mother/daughter dish towel aprons! Originally they were both supposed to have the full towel across the front, but the towels shrunk so much when I washed them that they weren't wide enough for the mother size. So, I added a "neck" to the white dish towel and a little spot for it to hang from the waistband.
(I promise the polka dot fabric isn't nearly as dizzying in person as it appears to be in these photos.)

ReplyDeleteOzzy Osbourne? Like the brain-addled rocker? hmmm he did wear one on his TV show didn't he? Anyways, they ARE cute...especially the tea towel with the cherries on the apron one...so cute and different. Love the cherry fabric, something about cherries just makes the world seem right.

ReplyDeleteThis is, perhaps, my most slow-pokey week yet. My apologies for taking so long to get over here from “A Little Birdie Told Me..” to enjoy your post. It’s important to me to visit and really give my full attention to all the links, but as the party grows it’s taking more and more time. Thank you so much for bearing with me, and for continuing to share your talent at Rook No. 17!
