Apron delight!
This apron really turned out exquisite.
The vintage cotton piece that I used for the main body of the apron was beautiful, pristine and nice to work with.
And, the vintage hand work that I sewed into this apron is simply stunning!
The front pocket was made from the delicately crocheted edge of a pillow case.
I added some pleats to the bib for an interesting detail.
For the tie, I cut a strip from a beautiful, vintage table cloth that seems to pull all of the elements together nicely.
I’m tempted to keep this one!

You should keep it. It is perfect, at least I think so. Thanks for sharing.
That is cute, and I can see that you have put in a lot of work. If you do sell it, I hope you get a price that reflects its true value.
Elaine it is beautiful! You are the apron queen!!!
Another beautiful apron by you. You’ve got the gift, no doubt!
Keep it – it is just too beautiful to give up!
