Lorraine’s This2That

This is an apron that was made from a dress. It was a cute adorable sundress but a little too small for me but it makes a great looking apron. You would love to cook something up wearing this apron. One size fits most. Retail $40.00, Made in the USA!!

Just kidding! It just seems recently that I have been making a lot a aprons. I'm fond of aprons because on more than one occasion they have saved the day. I do a lot of crock pot cooking so in the morning before work it could be disasterous if I wore dinner on my clothes. The three aprons pictured are very simply aprons to make. I used a large kitchen towel for the base, half a kitchen hand towel, the hotpad for a pocket and about 3 yards of 1 1/2" grosgrain ribbon!

This design consist of a kitchen towel, wash cloth, potholder and ribbon. So cute! I love the potholder design but I'm not sure I can find it again.

This is one of the easiest, did I say easiest aprons to make and fast, fast!! Great last minute gift idea. You need two kitchen towels and about 1/2 yard of cotton fabric. That's all it takes. I embellished it with a Mickey & Minnie embroidery design from my Disney machine.

Such a neat idea especially with all the smart phone touch screens. Here is my article in Altered Couture Feb 2011.
