Here is an Apron I made for my SIL. I've made something each year for at least one member of her family, and this was her year. After she saw the apron I made for our BIL that he posted on facebook this past summer, she called from hundreds of miles away to tell me she wanted one too. Made the apron front, binding and ties with a fine Osnaburg fabric and used a plain tan sheeting on the back. Very durable and machine washable.

Don't you love it when you get to do something for someone you love and it turns out perfectly?

Yes - thank you! I like to see the smiles on their faces when they discover I have personalized it for them, or used a design of something they really love and relate to.

Super sewing on the apron I love osnaburg cloth. Great stitch out of the design.

Thanks - I like using it as well. I have a few different wirghts and textures of this cloth. Seems it depends on the manufacturer as to how soft or nubbly it is. Also, there is a bit of difference in the shade of tan/beige, but I like that it is not always the same. Much more natural that way...

Thanks Carolyn. I figure I 'd better make some nice things for them, since I reap the tasty benefits of my BIL's hard work in the garden each summer. My other SIL comes home for Christmas with her family and plays Chef for us when we all get together. This is my way to say thanks for their efforts.

Thanks toogie!! I added the link to the design above for you (looks like I took a bit of liberty with the color of the bottle). Glad you like it.
