Practical Simplicity ~ For His Glory

The Apron

This apron was a gift for my cousin Brandon S. wife (Stephanie) as a wedding gift and I thought I would share a couple photos and a little story behind it with you all!

Here is a photo of side #1 (yes, it is a reversible apron!)

Here is side #2

So now that I have shown you the apron now let me share the neat story behind this wonderful apron!

This apron actually has a heirloom twist as the ties are from my cousins great grandmother’s sheets! Both my mom and I felt that it would make a wonderful addition to have the ties and neck straps made from these sheets to give it not only the cool heirloom twist, but to give this new addition to our family something extra special! It also took me a little while as the neck ties I actually hand sewed on part of it as well, which I thought would be neat!

I hope she is enjoying this apron as much as I did making it and that she would use it for many years to come!

God bless,

Miss. Antoinette K.

PS. I have made an apron for myself as well, and photos will be coming soon!
