Gingham Apron Sew Along part 1

So I joined the Gingham Apron Sew Along 

(see the button on the right hand side of the blog for more info)

and I finally picked my fabrics today.

I was originally thinking red and yellow gingham,

but this rooster fabric changed my mind for me :)

So red and black it is!

And I HAD TO add jumbo red ric rack, right?

I'll post more pics when it's done.

I haven't sewn an apron for myself in years.

Should be fun!
