I managed an hour or two of sewing this weekend, never enough, but this was productive. This first apron is cotton muslin, with some tulle fringe, a raw edge muslin ruffle, and a layer of antique flocked tulle ruffled around the base. Added a little doily for a pocket, and we have this sweet confection!!! Then, I pulled out an old linen skirt that I had saved for scrap (I LUV LINEN!!), and edited it into this cute little half apron. The lacy accent appliques come from antique blouses and other old finds that I have scavenged. Take a look!
You'll find these beauties at SoBo Style in Clintonville - check her out on Facebook!
I'm loving the frills! Then I took some vintage ticking, that my hubby was using for his antique muzzle loader!!! Can't have him ruining this gorgeous red and white striped cotton!!! I made a little vendor apron, and added a pocket of muslin printed with a vintage French label design. Love it!!!
Keep watch! More to come! Check my etsy shop for more vintage finds as well as my fabrics and art.
I love your apron - really beautiful detail. Love your blog also - welcome to the blog world.

I'm popping over from Dawn's place to say hello and welcome! Love your ruffly apron with the pretty doily! I love anything with crochet! And stripes, especially red and white, are always fabulous no matter what you create. :) Wishing you a wonderful day. Tammy
