Time for an apron

Ive been talking about making an apron for Malia for some time. In an effort to be better about doing the things I want rather than just talk about them, I decided today that I'd just do it! Stop waiting for the perfect conditions. I put the house work aside and during the girls nap time, I started on her apron.

I have collected quite a bit of fabric over the last few years since I started this hobby, So I had everything I needed. I really like this fabric. It's a cheerful color. And I believe they are apples, but I'm not 100% on that. This fabric has also been used in some sun bonnets.

As usual I got very into my sewing and failed to take pics as I went. Ah well, what ya gonna do?

Here is my little model! She wasn't in the mood for taking pictures as you can see, but she went with it anyway! I made it reversible so she can choose what color she feels like wearing (for a toddler, making her own decisions is a big deal!) so above is the green side...

And here is the pink/yellow side! Again, she looks so thrilled!

Here it is in use! She's helping daddy make western casserole :)
