Christmas presents... a bit late!

Forgot I hadn't posted these makes - I handmade presents and here's my mum's and step-dad's:

Bad for mum - a pattern from Etsy. I made it from spot oilcloth and floral cotton fabric. It's huge! I added a zip pocket on the back which I didn't do the best job of but it works!

 

 

 

 

 

An apron for my step-dad. A manly fabric is hard to find but this worked a treat! And the moustache pocket and trim fit with the general 'theme' for his presents!

 

 

 

Haven't got a photo of the bag I made my sister - I'll have to get her to take some photos of it and send them to me!

Pretty aprons

Made these 2 little beauties this morning...

 I ADORE jumbo ricrac!!

 Tea towel holder and heirloom stitching around the pocket

How on earth do you 'model' an apron in your PJs?!

 Not much better!

Pretty apron for a pretty lady...

I made this apron for my brother's girlfriend for Christmas and finally remembered to ask for some photos of it! I was really chuffed with the result and even more so when they thought it was shop bought!!


It features Ikea fabric for the main body, a little tea-towel loop, decorative stitching on the pocket, giant ric-rac and it's fully lined. So here are some photos of my first apron - more to come! 

Reverse lining:

I LOVE GIANT RIC-RAC!!!

Slightly messed up the button hole as it was so many layers to go through, but hardly noticeable!
