My church had it's annual spaghetti supper fundraiser. I usually make the sauce for the whole dinner and serve in the kitchen during the dinner. Mr. D works out on the floor serving all the lovely people. I've been wanting to make aprons for us for quite a while and thought no time was like the present, so I worked up a couple of aprons for us. Mr. D is a big Star Trek fan as am I so when I found Star Trek fabric at Joanns' I knew what it was screaming to be. I found dark blue baltic fabric to trim it out in. He liked it.
I looked for fabric that related to sewing or music but did not see anything I liked so I went with dragons instead.
The pattern I used was Simplicity 2691, a reversible apron.
Since I didn't have another fabric I wanted to use on the reverse side, I just used white muslin. I widened the apron about an inch to an inch and a half and lengthened the apron by about 2 to 3 inches. Overall I love both aprons and it was something I wanted to do for quite some time. It also is bringing to mind things I want to do and make for the upcoming holidays. I have a few friends that like to bake and cook, so this may be a great present as well.

An apron has been on my to-sew list for a long time. These ones look great.
Cute aprons! Yes they would make nice gifts. A friend made me one for Christmas last year. :)
Love this very much!
