artsy fartsy apron (lots to do sewing)
Here is me modelling my latest creation expertly photographed by my 10yr old! It has taken me a while to finish as I was having problems with my sewing machine so have been using my old faithful Toyota with the basic stitches to finish it. The apron is covered with loads of scraps of fabric all sewn on using crazy free machine stitching. I have then added some pockets which have transfers of my artwork and are little collages in their own right..click on this link for an earlier post to see close up detail of the pockets. The lots to do challenge this week is sewing so be sure to check out the other entries.

I agree with the lady above me that this is totally publication-worthy
If I had an apron this wonderful I’d be scared to wear it in case it got messed up :)
Fantastic apron- full of creativity! You should send this into "Apron-ology" - a Stampington publication- (I believe that is the name). Really wonderful work!
Lorraine, your colors are wonderful, and it's so important to have pockets! You look groovy.
What a work of art...bet you don't know whether to hang it on a wall or wear it!! The blackbird is gorgeous :-)
