Bridal Shower Gift......to go please

I received an invite to a bridal shower for a friends daughter and at the last minute my schedule cleared up so I am able to go! I refuse to use a registry for a bridal shower since this is a day for the bride and since I don't really know the bride, I was at a loss.

Then it came to me, a cute spunky apron for the soon to be newlywed. I have had this pattern for awhile but had not found the time to use it. This apron is simple yet has a beautiful drop waist and flutter to it. Add a few fabric flower pins and viola, it is ready to go! I hope she loves it and wears it during her first "domesticated" years so it can be a part of her fond memories.

Anthropologie Inspired, Ready for Baking!

I fell in love with this apron at Anthropologie and thought......how fun would that be with Amy Butler fabrics?
So here is my interpretation of the Spring Mix Apron. I would change a few details if I ever made another one but I am happy overall with how it came out!

I just love apron swaps, as if you didn't notice. The Busy Bee Apron Swap is wrapping up and was hosted by the talented duo Shawnee and Lucy! The theme was gardening and you were able to pick whether you wanted a gathered apron, gardening apron or a garden party apron. This is what I received my partner, Cynthia along with some other great goodies. I just love the color scheme, it defintitely reminds me of a summer garden and this pattern is one of my favorites, although I've only ever made them as gifts! Thanks again Cynthia

And here is the apron I made for my partner. She requested this pattern and mentioned that she loved polka dots and morning glories, so I think I covered all my bases!
