A Bit of Sewing For a Lady's Kitchen

Hello!  

I just wanted to share some sewing I've been doing for a 

young lady's kitchen. 

I think that the kitchen is really the heart of a home, 

and with all the work that goes on in there

 it's nice to have pretty things to work with, 

and to wear.

Plus aprons are wonderful to keep your regular clothing clean.

I'm not sure about you...but things for me can get messy in the kitchen. 

SO here is an apron in a lovely blue floral mix. 

It's simple but functional. 

I made the straps in the back long enough that she can wrap them around 

and tie it in the front if she wants to.

The front pocket has three compartments.  

They're not too deep, but I find that I rarely use deep pockets, 

but it's great for stashing odd things....like clips and cloths.  

Then I added a couple metal loops for the neck strap. 

This makes it super easy to adjust the length. 

The pot holders above I quilted with some cotton batting 

and a special thermal layer.

Should be good to use with hot things either on a table or counter...

or pulling hot things out of the oven. 

It's just a couple simple things to make a kitchen more cheerful.

I hope they make her smile when she uses them. 

Love and Prayers,

Jennifer
