I love wearing an apron.  I put one on when I am cooking and forget to take it off.  They’re just so comfortable and convenient.  I always have a place to dry my hands or a handy pocket to put something into. (Is it just me or does everyone have a large collection of doo-dads in their pockets each evening?)

On June 12th, I am giving away this lovely half Apron above on Give Away Today…  It is a pattern from one of my favorite apron pattern books, Retro Aprons by Cindy Taylor Oates.

Emily from Give Away Today also asked if I would be willing to give away an apron on the television program Good Things Utah on Tuesday, June 9th.  I thought it would be a great excuse to try out a new pattern.

After looking at more than few patterns I settled on the Flouncy Little Apron by Barbara Brandenburg.  For the fabrics, I took the drive around the mountain to Material Girls Quilts and was not disappointed… the only problem I had was which of the many wonderful fabrics to choose.

I loved making this pattern.  The apron is darling and the instructions were easy.  And yeah, it is a perfect place to pin my flower.
