Fiesta Apron Swap!





















Wanted to share pictures of the fun aprons that were exchanged for the Fiesta Swap hosted by Yarni Gras.

First one is the cute apron sent to me by Sherry! She made her first reversible apron with bright fiesta colors and added fun yoyo's, a loop to hang a towel on, and matching pot holders!

Next is the apron I made for Marcel. The colors were inspired by a pair of beaded earrings. The pattern was from Cindy Taylor Oates, More Retro Aprons book!

Tea for Two Apron Swap






Here are the aprons that my partner, Vea, and I swapped for the Sassy Tea for Two Apron Swap.

I asked for something pretty and feminine, so Vea sent me some of her favorite things! I love the floral fabric and detailing around the pocket and ruffle. She made a matching tissue holder that fits perfectly into the pocket. She also sent Earl Grey tea and my favorite biscotti!







Vea said she liked light blue and a ruffle, so I found this blue tea party theme fabric. The front has a double pocket, and the apron is reversible.


I also made this tea holder. The tea pot and cup are buttons!
