I've been thinking lately how great it would be if I had some little aprons that I could put on my princess to protect her clothes a bit more now that she is exploring the world on all fours and getting absolutely filthy. So today after work I decided to design my own pattern... I know, I was a bit scared at first too but it was so easy!!!
I made it out of the brown/chocolate
corduroy that I had left over from the overalls that I made yesterday. I put pink binding around the edges and then decided that it needed
embellishing so I added a felt flower
applique to the bottom right.
I made it
adjustable at the back so that she doesn't grow out of it too quick as she d
oes everything else from the store. Isn't it just sweet how it tappers up at the back? I just love it!!
On another note.... Everyone should really go check out
Ric-Rac's blog!! She has made these really funky bangles out of old plastic knitting needles. I'm desperate to give it a go but have to few plastic needles to waste any. I think that I might have to take her advice and check out the local Op Shop for some
bargains...
I hope everybody had a fantastic day. Until next time :0)
FANTASTIC work jode.... what a cute little design.... and sooo quick to make the best type of pattern....
