Sewing Aprons in class & a special Baby Sewing helper!

Saturday, June 23rd, 2012

In today’s post I am delighted to share more gorgeous sewing projects from some of the students in my sewing school.

Jan made a fabulous apron as you can see below. A black print combination of plain, print and stripe. Jan made this 1/2 apron style from one of my own designer apron patterns.

Tanya as shown below made a gorgeous vintage apron from vintage fabric to make a half apron to wear while cooking in her kitchen too! Great job Tanya well done!

We had a very special guest and sewing helper come to class! One of my students Sue, interrupted her term of sewing classes to give birth to her second child, a sweet little girl called Carrie. As you can see below Sue was quick to return to sewing classes with her new little bundle of joy and sewing helper. I guess you can never start too early in learning how to sew!

Sue as below shows the finished product of her beautiful Owl quilt for her new baby. Sue also enjoys baking and brought to class a tin of freshly baked fruit scones to share with her class which were just delicious. Thanks Sue, congratulations and well done on your baby quilt!

Well done girls! I can’t wait to see your next sewing projects and sewing designs in term 3!
