A bit of ricrac and some red filler fabric later.....and out of the machine came this too cute apron. That's just my opinion, but I'm biased.....and lucky that a lot of my creations nowadays come out the way I initially intended for them. This wasn't always the case.
Anyhow, this apron isn't for me (and here comes the fun part)........its for one of you lucky peeps! Yes, you, you domestic goddess, you!
Because today is my bloggiversary, dontcha know?! Just looking through my archives and it appears the blog has evolved from an art blog to a craft blog today, since I seem to be doing more sewing than painting. But I'll try fix that because the light is so much better now. Time does fly when you're having fun....and I couldn't let this milestone pass me by without sharing something with you.
So, drop me a comment below, if you wanna wear this "pretty" in your kitchen and I'll get the geezer to draw one lucky name out of a bowl Sunday night 28th October. Cheerio!

It looks great Jade, good to see you'll stil stash busting. Happy blogiversary!! I'm so glad we found each other and become real-life friends. It's invaluable to chat with someone else that gets it! No need to pop me in the draw, you know me I'm not much of a domestic goddess.
I love the scalloped hem with the ric-rac the best! Too too too cute! It would look sooooooo cute on me in my cute kitchen, too, haha, or hint-hint, I should say. Seriously, thanks for having a fun drawing!
I love the apron! Very feminine and festive :)
Wow so many blogs. So little time. That apron is so cute.
Happy Blogiversary!
Lurve that apron! Gorgeous, gorgeous fabric and the red accents are just perfect. The thing is I would be really hesitant actually using it as an apron - who would want to get dirt all over that fabric???

Oh the apron is gorgeous but I dont think it would fit me. I love the fabric too, and the scalloped edge makes it look so beautiful. Congratulations and I love reading about all your crafty endeavours.

My 3 year old daughter is stunned that I don't have any pretty dresses or skirts in my wardrobe. If I have a pretty apron to cook in I am sure that would just fine.
Happy blogaversary-love the apron it is so cheerful!
