Back in July we went to some
garage sales in a friend's
neighborhood.
I found these tea towels at my
friend's sale. Not really knowing
what I wanted to do with them, I
brought them home. Put them in
my sewing room and left them.
Well in my wanderings I decided
to make another tea towel apron.
Some of you will remember that I
made a set of these for a bridal
shower at school a couple of years
ago.
I ironed one of the aprons and then
using Heat Bond, ironed the ribbon
I found in my stash on the apron.
I wanted a pocket on this apron
so using part of the other tea
towel I figured and measured
for the pocket. Since the fabric
is striped, I wanted the pocket
stripes to go vertical as opposed
to horizontal.
I folded the raw edges under before
sewing the pocket onto the apron.
The side edges were already sewn.
After I sewed the pocket on I sewed
a line down the middle of the pocket
sew it was two pockets instead of
one big one.
Voila! Here is the completed apron.
Here I am modeling my apron
for you. I think it is very cute and
I like the way the pocket turned out
too.
Tea towels are very inexpensive and
these are so easy to make. If you
need a quick gift this is it!!!!
