Wraps that man around wtih her apron strings...

#28.  Make an apron.

First of all, the lyrics I used for the title are from "St. Louis Woman," which my great-grandmother used to sing when she washed dishes, cooked, whatever.  She loved this song so much, I actually sang it at her funeral.  She was such a wonderful woman, and I hope I can be half the woman that she was.


But on to the aprons - this one was so much fun!!  Jenica and Steffi also had this on their lists, and I have the only sewing machine between us girls, so we all got together and tackled this.  Wine was of course involved (Did you read my favorite cocktail post?), and our aprons each reflect our personality I think.  

*Disclaimer: Yes, the colors in the room we're in are horrible.  No, I didn't pick them.  It's a rental house - I deal.

This was the halfway point:
Jenica and I working on a pocket:
 
 Jenica sews!
 Steffi sews!

 Ignore that this is sideways, but this is my Desperate Housewives pose.  Note the wine.

The finished project, with Cone Fred.
