For the first time I threw the three prints guideline out the window. This apron uses seven different prints, four from my stash and three purchased especially, and as a result I can't call either side the reverse.
This is the stash side. The skirt fabric is from GJs Fabrics and may look familiar from the You SEW Girl book. The apple waist ties were a last-minute choice as they were the only print in my stash that suited both sides and I had enough of to cut the large pieces.
The waistband fabric is from one of my niece's, MIL's granddaughters', aprons. I like to make intergenerational links between the aprons.
This side is the fabrics bought especially. MIL wears a lot of light blue so I wanted to feature that colour in her apron. The florals are from the clearance table.
I was delighted to find the passport stamp fabric in similar colours to the florals. There's my bold fabric choice I like to include in all the aprons!
I featured the Australia passport stamp on both pockets. MIL likes tokens of her son's new home.
The apron still hasn't arrived with its owner yet... hopefully it'll be there ASAP!
