Let me just say that I receive no compensation from Sweetwater (although if anyone from Sweetwater is reading this...I am not opposed to it......just sayin' :) and with that being said, I realize that I am a bit obsessive about these labels and this apron pattern is really fun to sew. Especially after having made it before and tweaked it a bit. (I promise I won't post any more of these aprons....at least for a week or so) Anyhoo...I am signed up for the Spring Fling apron swap and my partner requested a spring cleaning apron and her favorite color is purple. Not being a purple lover myself, I had nothing in my stash to pull from so I went shopping. I found this Alexander Henry floral called Mimosa and because it is a "cleaning" apron I used purple twill to give it some weight. I also used purple gingham for the accents. I added a large pocket that is divided into 3 compartments. The label that has all the spring references and the green coloring matched perfectly for this apron. I only have 2 labels left and I already know where they are going to be used so I guess I need to get some more. I've also been working on a Star Trek project for a giveaway coming up on the 16th..so if you are a "trekkie"
you can check back here for more info on that in the next week or so. Have a great weekend!
