Older sister retired in May and she is still at the ''pinch me I must be dreaming stage''. I made her this apron, it so represents her, she has always had a mind of her own, this chair is her favorite in her livingroom.

I searched high and low for a design, found nothing soooo, I took a Maxine design from Dakota, beheaded her and added a head from Loralie Sewphisticates (can you tell?), I think she turned out pretty good.
She will get a kick out of this, not sure her hubby will LOL,
thanks for looking and now onto the next project,
Hugs
Michelle

I love what you did with the design when you couldn't find exactly what you wanted, brava!! It looks just perfect, and when I enlarged the picture, your stitching is beautiful, too. Well done!! Hugs, Marji

Sorry I can't thank each of your post individually, to pressed for time. The big event is in 16 days and I will be leaving in 7 so it is rush, rush time.
Thank you all for your kind comments, I really do appreciate that you all take the time to let me know I am doing something right LOL,
big hugs to all,
Michelle
