A sweet little apron for a sweet little baker.
I had fun with this project, inspired by embroidered doilies rescued from a St Vincent de Paul op shop. I halved the embroidered piece, hemmed it and created the apron from a template traced from a commercially produced apron. It came up so pretty, I think. I can't wait to give it to its new owner!

Emma that is divine! I was in the Annerley antique centre the other day wallowing in beautifully embroidered doilies but couldn't come up with a good reason to buy one - plenty not to, no.1 Julian loathes them. Now I might just have to sneak back! :-)

Totally sweet - and a great use for a doily!
