I made several handbags from this blue/brown decorator fabric a few Christmases ago, and there was just enough left to cut out the Lemon Meringue Apron from the book, A Is For Apron. I didn’t have enough for the waistband and ties, so I used a dark brown cotton. I cut the waistband a little wider, and it is interfaced and top-stitched.

Those pockets are cute, but I am wondering how useful they will be in actual use, because they are a little shallow. Now I guess I better stop stalling around and go finish the hobo bag.
