Yes I echo that its a lovely apron, well done.!
On another note, Keiss, yes I have recieved a Tens machine now, and it did make a huge difference. Will be putting it back on again after dinner too!.
Still not sewing though. Getting so frustrated.

Thank you both . Now that I know I can do it, I think I might have to be-frill everything that isn't nailed down!!

Lovely apron polly xx

that apron is beautiful i love the fabric. Did you use a pattern? If so which one i would love to have a go.

Thank you very much. I took the pattern from Better Homes and Gardens. I had to register before it would let me see it though! It was pretty easy although some bits (the purple gingham bits in mine) were sewn 'backwards' and although I could see why, it was still a bit weird doing it that way, having never done it before! I tinkered with the pattern a bit too, but not too much.

Oh love the apron Polly, I've bought some cupcake fabric too for an apron, just hope it looks that good LOL!

Not done anymore sewing this week, bwaaah! But I did buy these (cheap) love 'em!

Hope you all have a good day

Lovely apron Polly. My daughter would like a cupcake one. Well done on be-frilling it (is that a word if not it should be :rotfl:)

Avstar Those are well trendy scissors. Do they cut out as well as they look

Here is some felting that I did over a year ago. No idea what to do with it now! I am going to do some free hand embroidery over the top of it eventually. It's about 12x 8 I think so not a big piece. The hearts are a more reddy/pink than pinky/pink if you see what I mean.
