aprons away!

Well, I finished my first (and only) apron! It's been on my mind for a while, seeing all these pretty aprons hanging up in people's kitchens, thinking, Oh! that'd be nice to have...


So here it is, (I think the floral print was from Elspeth's giveaway pile last year):
It's also the first thing I've stitched together all by hand! I was surprised at how fast and satisfying it was to do it that way. I liked how much you can tailor it when stitching by hand, adjusting as you go, without having to worry about pinning it as much.
Now, time to make some biscuits!

Farmer's Daughter


Although Shane and Elf have already seen it, I promised (Laura) I'd put it up here.  So here it is.  I know what I think about it, but let me know what you think.  It is possibly for our logo, words to come- drawn by the impossibly amazing Yuri.

Love, Ann
