An apron made for a little boy in our church. A pity I did not use a lighter colored thread for the wordings. Hope he will like it. Hugs, Mary

Thank you, he is, sew him practically grow up from a baby everytime I see him in church.. Now he is 6 years old and loves helping his dad baking.

234497This is a lucky young boy! He will love that apron but also I agree the lettering would be more visible on the not checkered fabric. It happened to myself some time ago when I did an apron for my grand nephew and his sister. But it's looking good and is a great gift. Hugs - Maria

Thank you, Maria, one has to learn from our experience. I wish I have the discipline to sew more, but this time of the year in Germany is really pulling me down. But seeing the projects from you cuties inspire me. Hugs, Mary

Thank you, Toogie, I love check fabrics as well. Only have small pieces given by my SIL so could not make it into a table cloth. But I still liked it as an apron.

I agree with Angie, it would have shown up better on the solid color pocket, or use a red thread for wording, but that's for next time. This one looks fine.
