linen aprons




I made linen aprons a while back and printed them with stamps that I had made. Unfortunately, as I always keep one for myself, I washed it and discovered that the ink that was supposedly the correct color-setting sort simply was not.  So, I have redesigned the aprons and am thrilled with how the first one has turned out!
What do you think?

Bags are a wonderful idea ~ will you have to let Simone have a cut in the profits since it was her idea?? Love the aprons ~ make my ribbon extra long please :o)

I like the style, touch of raw natural, feminine and soft satin. Are these a one fit all short apron? xoxo

I would love to do bags but have to see if I am able to do them justice.
I tend to make the ribbons really long and then if they are too long for you, you can either cut them or double wrap them like I do!
So yes Joyce, they would be a one size fits all. I am going to make a few more that are even a bit larger, in length and width, with only one pocket.

These are beyond awesome...maybe, the perfect apron!! I have been busy making aprons this summer, but full size...using similar designs and flowers. I love the short style you've developed! I've used this type flower on my purses forever, and everyone always loves them (check out the bag at the bottom of my blog)!!! Love it!! Smiles, KIM

Maisy said...

LOVE IT! I did a post about linen aprons last week.
You are darling!!

Alicia said...

Yes bags... great idea Simone that would be so sweet. Perhaps little clutches or even cosmetic bags!!!
I love the apron Kim. The blush ribbon is just the right delicate color. I'd never want to cook anything in it though. Too lovely to use.

Give me linen, or give me death!

Not really, I'm just being dramatic. But I do love linen and I really love that linen apron.
