    Default My First Apron

    Here is my apron. Thank you Diana for doing this tutorial and thank you to all those who did not let me give up when the sewing machine died yesterday. The body of the apron is a light green fabric with flowers on it and the pocket and binding are hot pink. I think it just screams - let's go outside and plant something. After I finished it, I realized I want it for my gardening apron. Now I have to make another one for Ryan (slightly smaller) and kitchen ones for us as well. Diana you've created a sewing monster!!!!!!!
