Thank you package for Adele



My very generous friend Adele still has not received her Juicy Roo package of gratitude for sending me a gigantic stash of succulent crafty goodies from my beloved fabric store Dressew in Vancouver, BC. I've been meaning to make her a tshirt and an apron...I still have not mastered the perfect cut of apron, but am working on it. Love the kitchen graphic on the apron, I think it will be my first Spoonflower experiment. The tshirt features once again a lovely piece of Etsuko Furuya fabric. That woman is a genius!!

The Quest for the Perfect Apron



Inspired by a recent request from my extremely fabulous sista-in-law Snizza, I got busy trying to design a pattern to make the perfectly shaped apron. So far I have made two, and while the end results have been pleasing, the cut is still not quite perfect. I managed to spend the last four days of my holidays in a mad stitching frenzy. It was exhilarating! You can see the challenges I am having with my new Canon 400D digital camera. Soooooooo have no clue what I am doing. Its on my list of things to master. Here is Snizza's apron, using turqouise corduroy and a divine little piece of Echino fabric.
