I am really good at creating projects, while having absolutely no idea what it will end up being. For instance, when I decided to give paper piecing a try I knew I would do SOMETHING with that very first paper pieced block eventually, but didn’t know it would become the pocket on an apron until after the block was done.
I had thought about making it into a pillow or creating more blocks to make a small quilt, but both required materials I didn’t have, and the quilt was more time-consuming than I wanted. So, I made the apron! I should probably find someone to give it to though, otherwise I’ll end up with a million aprons at home. Not that I would mind, but I really just don’t need that many aprons.
That is ADORABLE!!! And I’ve never seen the button/towel combination . . . brilliant! Thanks for sharing your creation!
thanks! I try to add the button/towel on most of my aprons…it’s my favorite little extra touch!
I love this!! It also gives me an idea, I’ve wanted to get better with paper piecing and this would be a great use for it after.
Thanks! And there are lots of great options for your paper pieced blocks. I was also thinking of making a throw pillow, and a friend of mine made a bag out of one of her blocks!
I love the pocket and that towel is just so clever! Great apron!
thank you!
