"Numbers are intellectual witnesses that belong only to mankind"
Honore de Balzac...France
I needed to first grab a pencil,then the ruler,
the numbers were there,in this
book...waiting.
I measured...
I marked...

I cut... I sewed... I folded,pleated and pressed....
pocketed,tagged and
top stitched...

the numbers kept me intrigued as I went along..
the numbers well arranged and easy to apply...
and soon, I had not only one...
but two aprons...
ready for the giving...

pink and green... two colors of Spring
bold prints on wonderful
cotton...
two fabrics for each....
two gifts...
for two women...

and one beautiful
bleeding heart for you all.
Happy Mother's Day to you all this weekend...
Hoping your numbers add up to a perfectly wonderful day!!

Happy Mother's Day to you and yours
Is this the apron in the Amy Butler book. If so, I'm in the midst of making one also. What great gifts! And great choice on the fabric!
oops...just saw that it is indeed the Amy Butler book! Didn't realize that you linked it.
I love pink and green together! So lovely! Hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day too!
absolutely love both... and so will they.
happy mothers day to you, also.
What beautiful fabrics and aprons! I wish I could reach out and touch them - they are so pretty and the fabric looks so luscious! Where have I been? I did not know about Amy Butler fabrics, but they are beautiful. Your friends will love them! Thank you for sharing yet another inspiring post.
