Hostess Apron

Hi all!  Now that Christmas is over and I’ve given out gifts, I can show you what I’ve made!  One day my mom was talking about how cute the ruffle aprons were that EVERYBODY has now, and that she really wanted one!

I took that as a hint and began searching for patterns and tutorials.

And I found this one from sew4home

Then I found the lovely coordinating fabric at Hobby Lobby (how I will miss that store now that I’ve moved away!)

Here’s how it turned out for me:

My mom absolutely loves it!  She loves how the bib has enough coverage to protect her clothes from spills, and she loves the ruffles.  I felt that this tutorial was one that was okay to follow, but they left a few things out that super-beginner sewers may have trouble with.  If you’ve been sewing for a while, you’d be fine.  Thanks for reading and stay tuned for another Christmas gift very very soon!
