SEW EASY

One blog that I visit every day is that of Darby. I love to visit her because she is talented, but also because she is real. She tells just what it's like raising three little ones. One day this week she showed a picture of her with the cutest pleated apron and promised a tutorial for making it. Well, yesterday she gave a link for step by step directions. I had fabric from making my daughter's classroom curtains and found a piece of yellow large enough for the insert and sash in my scraps. I'm not a seamstress by any means but the directions were SO EASY to follow. I am a lover of aprons so this was one I wanted to make quickly. I love this apron....wish I looked as cute as Darby showing mine. She also has great tutorials for other projects. If you haven't visited her blog, you will want to do so.
