Cheery Cherry Apron

Every woman needs at least one apron even if she never wears it. An apron with cherries on it would be particularly fitting for a certain somebody who never wears aprons but might wear one during cherry season (if she had one). With that in mind, I just had to make a cherry-topped apron for this special person---you know who you are. :-)

Since cherries can be so messy to work with, I thought this style of apron would provide a good cover-up. I made the same pattern as Jessica's apron and the same view, but I did not put the ties on. I did lower the neckline by several inches, but I think it needs scooped even more. The apron went together easily enough and I plan to make it again. I'm glad that Jessica challenged me to make an apron, and I think now I need to challenge her to finish the one she started. :-)

    Okay, if you really want an apron, lol, then pick a view from the picture that Jessica showed on her post and I'll make you one, too. :-)

    It's rather fun making aprons.

    Is it me? Is it me? YEAHHHHHHH IT IS ME!!!! :o)At least I think it is me.
    A rather lovely apron if I do say so myself! I couldn't have done a better job. I was even thinking of making one out of craps, taping it together and taking a picture as if I had sewn one. I am sure a professional would be able to tell I didn't sew it just by the picture. :o) Awe....you really really do love me! (as said in my tweety bird voice)
