Sew Many Choices


"A spotless apron is like a photo album with no pictures..." Every smudge on your apron is a stain of love, holidays and home. Collect and savor them one and all!" Quote from "Apronisms" by EllynAnne Geisel.

One of the favorite pastimes of any stitch artist is wandering through fabric stores looking for new inspiration for things to make and I am no exception to that.

I found these lovely prints last summer and they are forever popular with java sippers and much more traditional than the Folklorico collection but just as fun and colorful. This one is a hit with the Coffee Klatche Crowd! I call it Coffee Latte!

The two small photos show details I added to enhance the apron: large button trim at the top of the apron and a polka-dot pocket.

The Brown version of this fabric apron includes a "coffee mug" shaped pocket. Very unique!

This is another great apron for dessert lovers out there. A fun apron to wear at a summer picnic! (click photo to view large format)

  1. :Domestic arnor"-- what a great description. These are just beautiful. You can tell that you are an artist, not just another sewer. You have a beautiful eye for fabrics and detail. I've seen these in person, so I know they are well made.
