Shall We Gather... in the Kitchen?


In preparation for an upcoming class where I'll teach the vintage art of Smocking, I've just added this sweet little apron pattern to my Etsy shop.  


If I wear it around the house, my girls call it my "Little Old Lady" apron.  Haha, I love it!  New fabrics, vintage technique, it brings to mind memories of my Mom, Grandma or Great-Grandma in their respective kitchens.  My foremothers all wore aprons on a daily basis!  

Want to give smocking a try?  Here's the TUTORIAL.  And you can find the pattern for this adorable, sweet, smocked "little old lady" apron on my Etsy Shop HERE.



Ginghams seem to keep rising to the surface lately, and you can find a whole realm of gingham prints and wovens in varying sizes out there.  Pine Needles carries RBD Gingham in every color and size imaginable.  Just spreading the Gingham Love!
