Aprons

I love aprons! I love them and I've started a small collection of them. Some are new, some vintage and I think they are just great. I love that they are old fashioned and hearken back to days when all mothers got to stay home to take care of their husbands, children and house. They are the stereotypical icon of the house wife...and I like them. I also love them for all of the reasons housewives of the past wore them, because they are so darn practical. They keep my clothes clean and provide a place to wipe my hands or dry a dish in the kitchen. And today I made one! I had a fun kit that came with the pieces all printed on a sheet of fabric and ten easy steps to complete it. I was able to use my fancy new Gingher scissors (wow! Are they ever amazing! Thanks Steve and Marla!) to help me complete the little project. This has me itchin' to keep on sewin' because it's just sew much fun!

Here it is...and feel free to ooh and aah over those pretty scissors
