Santa Baby

My awesome new apron! Soon to be seen on etsy and if etsy knows what's good for it, it won't be seen at my next craft show.
100% cotton, two layers, rick rack on the bottom layer, pocket, extra long straps!
The most pirate-y, rockin-est, Christmas apron you will ever see, don't try to deny it.

Tristan and his Tricked out Apron!


This is Tristan! He's 8 and wants to be a pastry chef when he grows up.

His super cool mom ordered this apron for him! Yeah yeah yeah, it's a little big, but he'll grow!

Hopefully when he's famous on the food network he'll remember the little folks that got him there :) Swingin Martinis Designs was there in the beginning to protect his clothes from the ravages of frosting!

A heap of aprons!

We have two matching kid aprons for some cousins...yeah, I think they're cousins...
I bought this fun fabric MONTHS ago for kitchen curtains, but it didn't match our kitchen...I hear that the kids love them...so that's nice! They are just 100% cotton, bias tape and D rings for an adjustable neck strap!

We have another kid apron...I think I'm making them too big though...that was a custom request on Etsy. Thankfully the mom is a little punk and she appreciates black for this basic, sturdy, 100% cotton apron. I got the mixer fabric online a while ago (see other post) and got to use it for a fun pocket!



This apron is another Etsy custom request, but all the way from Australia! It's waterproof too! I found this really awesome iron on vinyl! I made some coasters out of it once and have not had a problem, and outdoor place mats for my Grandma...
I just took a cotton fabric that she picked out online, ironed on the vinyl, added some bias tape and Voila!
This is for a woman who just got into Lapidary. I hope this works for her!

Aprons!

So until I can get pictures from people I have made aprons for - here are some of the cool ones I have made!

This is one of the first ones I made form a pattern I found online. The pieces were kind of wonky...and I ended up finding the real pattern at the fabric store...but cool nonetheless!

This is the same pattern that I made for Vanessa, I just added some pockets...this is one I used from the pattern online - see how the pieces don't all match!?

This is fun fabric I found in the clearance section at the fabric store and I have no idea why! It's so cute!!! I made this from that same online pattern, but I only made a half apron from it...I ended up giving it to my sister in law - she likes aprons - but I'm jealous that I don't have it any more...

I also made this for my sister in law - jealous again that I didn't keep it :)

This is ANOTHER apron from that online pattern, but I actually used the real pattern instead...I found this beater fabric and it is just too awesome! I piped each petal - which was a pain in my arse, but it looks great! No one bought it on etsy, so I might just keep this one...

Coming soon are pictures of the Dia de las Muertas apron I made plus a few other retro awesome ones!
