Apron Additons
















New colors for the Poodle Skirt Apron and another style apron. Lots of fun with the fabrics and "tried and true" designs!! We're even making aprons for those men in our lives who cook! At the last shower I attended , the only gift passed around was the "Kiss the Cook" poodle skirt apron. Very cute and a little sassy!

My Favorite Design











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.
