Anthropologie Aprons
While making my traditional English-ish Christmas dinner (which turned out great, by the way), it occurred to me that I need an apron. Because I entertain a lot, I often end up cooking for people while wearing, say, a cashmere sweater or a nice dress. But I want a cool apron, something interesting and fun that I will want to wear.
The next day, I ended up in Anthropologie and was enamored by their apron selections. They cost about $30. I particularly liked this one:
But $30… You know, how hard can that be to make? I took a look around and came up with free apron patterns, such as:
* one made from napkins
* a frilly 1950s apron
* a baker’s apron from Martha Stewart
* a quilted one for children and small adults that could be adjusted
* and 52 other free apron patterns online.
None of these are quite right, but aprons seem like something that could be adjusted pretty easily. Maybe I will make one.
