And now for my inspiration for the rickrack bedazzled, paisley and polka dot apron...
DRUMROLL PLEASE.......
This vintage apron is from the 1920s and is referred to as a "flapper apron".
Isn't it wonderful?!
I have another sweet little project nearly finished that I will be posting...once I sew a button on it. :)
Thank you, my dear friends, for stopping by and for your many thoughtful comments!
Blessings and fond friendship,
Carolynn xoxo

ps..I clicked on your blog link from your flickr profile and it dosen't open.
Oh, the color of that apron simply dazzles me! At first I thought it was a child's dress...there are so many on the Mommy Blogs, but when I read that it was an apron I was "gobstopped!" Red and Aqua happiness! =D
Oh Miss Carolynn...Please tell me you have a pattern. This is gorgeous. I am so in awe of your skills. Every little detail. I adore smoke aprons. Okay, any apron really but this pattern is beautiful. You can never have to many...fat quarters of your favorite fabric?

My favorite color combination is aqua and red, so I'm crazy about that sweet apron! You do such wonderful work Carolynn, with alot of attention to detail!
What a lovely make and fabric combination, dear Carolynn. Your apron looks really cute. :)

Sweet adopted momma, The apron you made is beautiful and absolutely darling! The ladies will love your class and love having you teach them how to make this! Every detail is so sweet! Your labels are lovely and the vintage apron is gorgeous! I look forward to seeing your other project! Much love, hugs and blessings! Your girlie~Paula xo
Hi Carolyn,
Adore your apron for your class!
Thank you so much for visiting my little blog and for your sweet comments on my Rednesday threads. My daddy grew up in Parkdale, Oregon - I think it's by Hood River? One of his brothers stayed on in Portland - I think that must be where we received the vintage Portland ephemera from.
Happy almost weekend! :)

Well Carolyn, if you saw my last post, you'll know that THIS is just what I'm talking about! You women of bloggerville who sew beautiful things, and are enjoying every minute of it! I must learn to sew, and you're just the inspiration that I need! :)

Hi - I absolutely love aprons too. i am just learning to sew and have bought a couple of patterns for vintage aprons. I think I like them so much because they remind me of my Nan, open fires, toast and pots of tea! Lily. xxx
