I purchased this cute book full of different apron patterns when I joined the swap! My secret partner likes vintage feed sack prints from the 30's and 40's. The fabric with the circles and feathers is a vintage feed sack (given to me by my sister who got it from her husband's grandma, got that?) and the gingham and small dotted print are reproduction fabrics. I'm thinking of using the Cakeland pattern from the book and adding some special trims, like the orange ball fringe and maybe some rick rack.~Jessica
I love that book- it's one of the few impulse buys that I don't regret!
