Cow Print Apron

Lately, I've had more sales with the animal prints. There's just something about the cow, giraffe and leopard print that people like. This cow print apron is sturdy and lined, making it very durable.

Collared Apron

Here's a new twist, keeping the collar on the shirt apron. This is a work in progress, we'll see if this works.

Tiny Apron

This tiny apron for a little girl has frills and lots of pink. It is reversible and fun for playing "dress up".

Black Bling Apron

I made this apron for a hair stylist who wanted something different from the plain black aprons she was wearing. She liked bling and this satin apron looks great, and works hard. The trim sparkles!

Half Apron, sleeve cuffs

This was a fun apron to make, using sleeves from 3 dress shirts. The sleeve has a nice flare design for the skirt. I combined blue cotton prints and lined it with a silky fabric, giving it fullness and durability.

Striped Shirt Back Apron

There are a few dress shirt backs, that can be made into a beautiful apron, and this is one of them. The pleated back gives fullness which is just the right size and look. Ruffled lace extends the length adding a nice touch.

Embellishing day

Today I'm working on embellishing, and this apron has inspired me to use a string of blue beads and shiny silver trim. I'm not quite finished, and will likely add more details before its complete. Embellishing is the fun part of making and apron, and I'm progressively adding more trim/detail/pattern to my aprons as time goes on. "It's all in the details"
