I bought this pattern called One-Yard Apron by Indygo Junction.  It was one I had hoped I would use over and over again. Unfortunately, the directions for attaching the ties was ambiguous so I just made up my own way to do it. I hate it when a great idea is engineered poorly. I bought this great fabric. Bread and cheese! My plan was to make two of these and give one away or sell it.

Now I have a half yard of bread and a half yard of cheese left and no motivation to try it again.
Maybe I could do something for the table with this cool fabric.

In the mean time, I do have another apron/bib to wear and I got the ties to function adequately.

Just needs finishing touches! Hope my youngest niece does not look at my blog or her birthday present will not be a surprise!

Remember this?

Here is the pattern I am using for the project. Can you guess which version? 

If you guessed NONE OF THE ABOVE, you are correct. I vaguely used the skirt pattern from view C and kind of looked at the bodice and then made my own, better, faced edition.

By the way, if you like this pattern and have a spare $16.95, you could own it, too. Luckily, I am an excellent shopper and bought my copy for $.99.  I love a bargain.

What is it going to be? Another little sewing project. Pictures of the finished product some time soon.

The finished apron. I wore it to the table for the first time and was met with hooting shouts of laughter. Maybe because I wore it over my granny flannel gown and ratty chenille bathrobe.
