    My brother's fiance likes to cook, my brother likes to eat, so I got her a couple of cookbooks for Christmas and tried my hand at sewing this apron from this blog here http://jonag.typepad.com/stop_starin...n-an-hour.html
    I've never sewed anything before (I only learned to use the sewing machine to quilt) so I was really surprised to finish it an hour as the blogger said..it is very simple, so if anyone is looking for a quick gift, give it a shot, if I managed to make it, I am sure anyone can.
