meet betty...and a couple of aprons
i love her.
she is wearing an apron i found yesterday at a delightful antique mall in port townsend. it looks like someone took a tablecloth or table runner and created an apron from it. love how the person used the embroidery for a pocket.
in this next photo, she is wearing an apron my mother and i made together last summer. hard to believe that i was so overwhelmed by the thought of trying to understand how to use my sewing machine a year ago after a 20 year absence from sewing (yes, that means i was about 10 when i was sewing before this last year).
i love this apron for many reasons...the colors...the butterflies...but mostly i love it because my mom and i made it together.

i can't believe you've only been sewing for a year...that's so inspirational.
and betty is just rad. i love the necklace she's sporting. ;)
i just got off your etsy site! great new things....keep it up!
the prayer flags rock.
Kelly gave me an apron when we met in February, and I LOVE wearing it when I work. It is now covered in paint, pastels and probably some glitter. :)
i do like that little pink ric-rac trim on the pocket...
i love your aprons, especially the one you made. you did such a nice job - i've always wondered if it would be easy to make one.
