tie one on: august's theme: mini-me!

what is this about?

make aprons to show and tell! every few months there is a different theme. you make the apron, e-mail me the photo (a jpeg) with your info (like a blog link), and then I will add it to the gallery at the end of the month. sound fun? yup!: please submit newly created aprons. not purchased or existing vintage ones.

August's theme is "mini-me"! So, this is a "large" and "small" apron challenge. The idea here is to make 2 aprons, one for yourself AND one for someone small in your life. This can be a child (yours or borrowed), a doll or softie, or even a pet, (extra points here, obviously, especially if you can get a photo with the model cooperating.)

here's a matching set from the vintage apron pattern photo gallery-

and new matching aprons from flip-flop style (but they look vintage!)

here's a papa in a apron- (photo found here)

and some cuuuute boy aprons. Look at how sweet these little guys are! So, the aprons just have to be matching (the gender/species of the participants do not have to match) and one apron has to be bigger than the other, that's the "mini-me" part of this whole thing. . (these great old photos found here and here)

and here is the matching pair my mom gave to me and sadie, (which she wore with her mom!) and of course, please see the last post for a modern take on the matching theme. Okay-start your designing! And please feel free to submit 2 photos to me when you are done, you know, one for each apron.
