From This to This

I purchased these two pieces of fabric a few weeks ago with the idea that I would make a girlfriend's daughters aprons. So, I toted them back and forth to work everyday because the fabrics made me happy whenever I looked at them. Well, here they are, 100% complete and soon to be mailed to Smithville, Ohio. One, no doubt will be used for cooking and cleaning, and the other, well, maybe to collect bugs and wear while helping Daddy work on a car or plant flowers, for she is "Dude."

Thrift Store Finds Part 2

Wow, yesterday, not a day I intending on spending any money yielded another fabulous find: fabric. I LOVE getting fabric at the thrift store. Nothing like five yards for $2.

The picturesque scene was made in the 80's and I haven't decided if it would be better as a tote or an apron. Gotta figure that one out. The brown and white fabric is a polyester and will eventually become a skirt. Now, the other two will becone skirts or pinafores for the weeone, or both!
