I. Don't. Sew.
Well, I have done a couple projects in my time: I've made a couple tie quilts and some pillow thingys for a church service project. Easy stuff (read straight lines) because the sewing machine terrifies me.
Really.
Have I said that enough? Do you feel my fear?
So for me to take on an apron to make as a birthday gift for my SIL was exciting (it should be simple enough for me to figure out) but intimidating (it's sewing, period!). I had no pattern, just a couple of measurements and pictures to try to replicate from. With lots of help from Erynn and Steve I was able to FINISH! Yahoo!
Enough chit chat. Here's the finished product:
Little bit of lace peeking out the top
A very slight ruffle at the bottom- I didn't double the length after all Erynn. That was way too full for me. Can you see the little ruffle?
Little pocket on the right side- didn't realize it needed to be parallel with the side seam until after I had sewn it level with the bottom. Live and learn right?
...and the back tabs. Below the bottom ruffle is more lace but I neglected that picture. Whoopsy!
I am so stinkin' proud of myself for finishing a project!

It is super awesome!!! Thanks again so much! It hangs on my wall in the kitchen screaming at me to wear it and start baking ;)
