It's time for me to attempt a new "theme" to my blog for the year. (Remember last year I did all of my family's birthday posts?). This year (thanks to my sister Rhonda's suggestion) I am going to post "An Apron a Week". Yup! That's 52 aprons for your enjoyment...all three of you who read this blog!
I've been so very obsessed with aprons lately. When I went to my family reunion last month my sister, Rhonda again, gave me a cute little apron. Then, I bought a bibbed apron at our family auction which was sewn by my niece-in-law, Becky. I made it my quest to start sewing aprons. So, get ready...they're coming. I'm planning on posting my finished apron for the week each Sunday morning. Okay? Then you can critique it and tell me what to do next time.
So, this week I just wanted to share my apron book I purchased:
I love this book. It has 25 different aprons to choose from. If you love aprons, buy this book. Even if you don't sew. It's just fun to look at.{02 August 2010}

I love love love aprons! I have a few books that I've bought that I was just sure I'd sew a few aprons from..... they sit... collecting dust. :) I'm going to real soon though!
I look forward to seeing the aprons you make. Very fun.
I loved the bibbed apron you bought at your family reunion auction; I would love one like it. I want to start getting "craftier"- maybe I'll start with an apron.
Good idea! I have a friend who makes aprons, and they are soooooo adorable!
Here's my favorite hostess apron tutorial:

From my own bff. You should have her do a guest post on your blog. She also has another full length apron tutorial on her blog.
I love the hostess one. That and a couple matching pot holders make great bridal shower gifts :)
I want one! I love this idea. Love it love it!
