Here’s the apron I referenced the other day, back when it was just a bunch of woven strips attached to a rectangle of linen. I am wearing it now. It works.
For an apron to work for me, it MUST have strings long enough to tie in front, so that I can tuck a dish towel into it. Pockets unnecessary.
For the many quilters and fiber artists out there who make work as gifts or to sell, how do you know when something’s A KEEPER?
I knew I wanted this for myself, but sometimes I DON’T. One way to turn something I haven’t admitted I want to keep into a keeper is to price it too high. Ha!
P.S. This apron combines the learning from two Jude Hill classes (Spirit Cloth) — Cloth to Cloth and Contemporary Boro.
Saw this on your facebook page and had to revisit your blog. You are so inspiring. Thank you.
why thank you, Kim!!
ha! another tie in front apron lover! though, for me, i like to tie my aprons in front because they are much easier to tie over the generous belly acquired from years of food romance and culinary adventures! i also love having a place to tuck hand towels and have never understood the point of a pocket. i mean, what do people put in apron pockets???
Hi Joe! I need RATHER long ties at this point, as well! and re: pockets? yeah, what on earth would go in them?!
i really like this apron (which I don’t wear), it looks like a very cool skirt (which I do) the combination of colours and fabrics: just so you
thanks, Saskia… I guess those are kind of my colors these day!
