I did a HUGE job for our local Chik-fil-A's 50's Week. Lots of Poodle skirts, but they had cows instead of poodles. Complete with a pocket that said, "Eat more chicken." They asked if I could make poodle skirt aprons. I made, remade and cut and recut until I had the "perfect Poodle Skirt Apron." After I finished all the CFA stuff, I decided to take the apron to a new level. I put a poodle on an PSA (poodle skirt apron), and it looked very cute. However, my mess when I cook is always on the front, I need a bib front apron. So I went "retro" and made a funky bib for my PSA then added "retro Christmas" embroidery designs. It's become my favorite thing I've designed. I begged Bekah to model it for pictures. She agreed if I wouldn't get her face. Don't tell her I accidentally (he he) got her face in one of the pictures!
Since I wrote last, I've had to come up with yet another design for CFA who wanted all three of their Santa's helpers to have different aprons. I like the snowmen because it lengthens out how long you can use the apron. Some folks seem to think a Christmas apron is not very practical! But as one friend pointed out "Christmas comes every year!" So I now have Christmas ornaments in bright colors, a Christmas tree, and the snowmen.
