I started an apron this morning and then went into help Amy as they only got home last night. They have been away for 5 weeks. I finished about half an hour ago. I love these they are from DIY Dish. Love Chris

Oops! I forgot to say that I used my new Bias Binding Machine that I bought on Friday whilst out with Meg, Pauline and Coral. It's wonderful - I wish I had one of these years ago. They are so easy to use and are great for quilts etc. Love Chris

Fantastic! I thought the binding looked really professional, not that it doesn't any other time but it looks pressed. :-)
Hugs n love, me

Chris your apron is so elegant!! You always select the most gorgeous fabrics that go so beautifully together. I love the little flower with the button!
Very professionally made and something to be very proud of! My Mama still has some of the aprons she made for herself and me. What great memories, and treasures they are.
Binding scares me to death. LOL I'm curious as to what type of new machine you purchased.

Hugs and ***4U

I'm really confused. This really looks like a purse to me. I must be seeing things. However, I do like how you put all the materials together.

This panels on this apron are 22 inches long and by the time you gather it I've bought it back to about 18 inches. The ties are really long. Love Chris

Beautifully done, I love the added flower. Does the bias machine make go smoother,faster? I have the iron as you go type. If machine smoother I will have to put on my wish list.
