Those that know me well know that I go on obsession trips. This is when I focus entirely on one thing and everything else falls to the wayside. I do believe I'm trying to go on an apron kick. They are so fun to make and cute! This one was repurposed from a skirt I found at a thrift store that had great tiny pleats all around it. With much pondering, planning, and finally fancy cutting skills, I was able to fashion a full apron with a lined bodice and waistband. Not too shabby for an unwanted skirt, if I do say so myself. And I really like the way I figured out how to make an adjustable neck strap. I always disliked the aprons that tied in the back because that knot always felt so hard against the back of my neck, but the aprons that didn't adjust never fit me right. This apron has two button holes that the strap slides into, then you just tie a knot in the end after you've adjusted the length. Pretty nifty if I do say so myself!
