Do you hear those angels singing???? It's because I finally finished my Emmeline apron. I have had this pattern and fabric for MONTHS. Since February. And I have been either too sidetracked with other projects or too intimidated to start this one. But I told myself that I can't buy any more fabric or patterns until I finish what I have, so I had to tackle this eventually. I really like the way it looks, but holy moly was it a high maintenance project. Homemade bias strips, darts, gathers, and HAND STITCHING. I cheated and left out the hand stitching part. This is an apron, for Pete's sake. It will be okay if the seams show a bit!!
So here it is!
A blurry self portrait so you can see the fit.

Side B (yes, that's right, people -- it's REVERSABLE!!)

so cute - I love this style! My aunt has made a bunch of aprons like this and I just think that they are so pretty. The empire waist/ties gives it such a feminine, flattering look. Job well done Paige!
