Refashioned Aprons from hankerchiefs

This summer my younger girls took a cooking and etiquette class.  A few days before the Mother’s tea to end the classes I am told that they will need aprons sewn.  All this in the middle of my moving my studio and believe me, I could have used movers because I have so much stuff.

I remembered that I had some vintage womens hankies (though they were big enough to be napkins) stashed away.  In fifteen minutes I had two aprons which coordinated but were different for my girls to wear.  The bias edge that ties the apron on came from a crib dust ruffle which I have had in my refashion pile for years now.

I love the sweet little flowers
and the simple crochet edge.  Someone somewhere worked on these.  I love that.
