It's time to get caught up with my sewing journal here!
I've finished two projects in the past week or so. The first is a fun cafe apron, with a pocket featuring vintage embroidery. Here it is...

I love using vintage features in my projects. This piece was from what I believe was a dish towel. It did have embroidery on both ends, so perhaps it was a small table topper?? |
|
Whoever did this embroidery did fine work! |

I'm calling it the "Pancakes for Breakfast" cafe apron. I'm planning to sell this one. |
The other project I finished was part of a the Across the Pond Sew-along I am participating in. The pattern was for a patchwork scarf. At the time I just could not come up with a good combination. This Saturday when shopping at a local fabric store I found three bins in the back with sample pieces of fabric. The samples included different colors of each design, and I thought it would be perfect for the project. So ... here is the "wild" patched scarf.

I'm not sure what the fabric line is, but it is a silky type fabric, and has a nice drape to it. See why I call it "wild"? :)

That is a wild scarf! Not bad, just very colorful!
