Switching Gears

Since my sewing machine came back to life, I've been using it probably more than I should, but I REALLY missed it! I also brought back my box of fabric.



I found a cute children's apron on Pinterest and wanted to make an adult version.

I did some google searching for an adult ruffle apron and found this blog post.
I used this as a guide, but I'm not a very precise sewer, so my measurements are probably off a little here and there.


Here is my final result.


I used the self timer, which getting the exact shot you want, makes exponentially more difficult, but hopefully you get the idea. :) I adore this apron, but it will be leaving my house soon. I made it as a gift for my little sister, who just started her very own cooking blog. I helped her with the design of it and you'll see some of my photography pop up here and there.

Definitely go check it out!

Oh and by the way, that Oreo cake she made was AMAZING, some of the best frosting I've ever had!


XOXO,
Holly & Co.
