I am really swamped at work right now. I left the office at 8:30 Friday night and worked another six hours yesterday and six today. But I couldn't go the whole weekend without at least a little sewing. I already had the apron for the Sassy Apron Swap cut out so I took an hour and sewed it together. All I know about my partner is her name and address. She indicated no preferences and she doesn't have a blog so I was working with a blank slate. The theme of the swap is Spring so I figured this fabric looks pretty springy. Yes?
The pattern is McCall's 3979, a combination of View A & View B. I've now made all but one of the five views of this apron. I took one picture with flash and one without. Neither is very good but you get the idea. The colors are somewhere in between the two versions.
I think I'll knit a Ballband Dishcloth in blue and yellow to send along with it.
Hi!
ReplyDeleteI found your blog via the Sassy Apron Swap! I think that apron is really adorable!
It is harder than I thought it would be to come up with an apron for someone else. My partner has tons of things she likes...and doesn't like...(it is hard that way too!)
I love your sassy apron and what a great idea to make a ballband washcloth to go with it! Hope work eases off soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get paid overtime! Sorry to hear you are so swamped. I've been super busy at work too. This weekend I've just 'recreated' my month of recovery. I have knit, but I'm avoiding finishing the curtains.
ReplyDeleteThe apron looks great. I think we have the same swap partner, I got exactly the same information. Name & address, no preferences, no blog. g
Bonnie that apron is adorable! Love the blue/yellow combo. Your partner will love it, I am certain!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute apron! I love it!
