Friday, Oct. 21st...brrrrr...a very cold day in WI with sprinkles that threaten to turn to snow over the weekend. Wanted to share this neat apron idea I found on eBay a while back. For some of us that have odds and ends, or vintage scraps, or even extra "nickle" squares...this looks like such a neat way to use them. I would think you would just cut across one corner to form a waistband of your size, and then add the waistband and tied. Could be bound with bias tape, or some other edge treatment. I'm thinking about one in christmas colors.

I loved this idea... Have you seen those 1940's aprons that are becoming popular again? My mom just made some of them for my daughters and she sent with them the sweetest poem about "Mother's Apron." I'll try to type it into my computer sometime and share with you!
Thanks Nines...I think I have had my daughter send me that one, about all the things our moms used their aprons for..like drying tears and carrying eggs?
It's the apron is neat in that I think you could use double patchwork if you want it reversable. And I love how the one square left out forms that little bottom detail.
What a fun apron! I love that idea! I'm so glad you posted it!
