A is for Apron: 25 Fresh & Flirty Designs

A is for Apron: 25 Fresh & Flirty Designs Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A is for adorable and amazingly irresistible and incredibly attractive: who would have imagined that the apron, that charming and nostalgic symbol of domesticity, would become today’s must-have home accessory? But it most certainly is, as stitchers and crafters flock to these creative canvases as the perfect vehicle for showcasing fabulous fabric, simple embellishments, and novel ideas. These ingenious projects—from ultra-feminine and vintage chic to whimsical color-play—include waist and bib aprons, pinafores, smocks, cobblers, and even something for the pint-sized cook. All of the projects are photographed in a playful style. And templates, sewing basics, and quick and easy projects for sprucing up store-bought aprons and whipping up aprons from recycled materials are here too!

I love this book! I was pleasantly surprised to find the patterns in the back of the book. The pictures are cheerful and colorful and very inviting. Made we want to whip up and apron that evening!
