Aprons were a success!
I madly sewn for days to get full aprons finished for
the bird expo this past weekend. I went to the expo with 8 full aprons (KNOWING that 7 were already sold). A local bird foundation was the one that bought 6 aprons. Saturday they decided that they wanted 6 more aprons. Then on Sunday afternoon come "settle" up time for vendors the president of the foundation came to pay me, while she was doing that she told me to add yet ANOTHER 6 to the order. That is a total of 18 aprons for the foundation. Another vendor purchased one apron than came back to order another. That is a total of 20 aprons sold this weekend. Since I used up ALL my premium cotton muslin (I used for lining) had to go buy more muslin, and more base fabric for the aprons. Soon as I get the shipment of bird fabric in (had to order more) I will begin making the 13 aprons needed. |
That's terrific news Louise good for you! I love that kind of happy expo news.

A local friend also makes aprons for little girls. She has quite a business making matching mommy and daughter aprons. Congrats on your success!
|
That is fantastic! Must make you feel good to have such a big order!
|
Wonderful! It's always nice to hear a success story.

Happy to hear your aprons were a success. What style of apron pattern did you use? Would have been great to see a picture as I'm a visual person!!

I will post pictures of the 3 aprons I have photos of
when I get home from work today. No fancy pattern just created a template using copier paper and traced the basic outline on the fold for the full apron and for the half just cut rectangles in the size I wanted.
