(Topic: Sewing, Teddy bear clothes)
Hi Friends!
Well, I had a migraine on Saturday and was busy on Sunday, so here’s the post I was supposed to finish on Saturday. Oops!
This is a project I really, really enjoyed. This is the first matching outfit Pookie and I have.
|
This is my apron. I did not make it: I got it from Grove.co and I like it. It’s not perfect, but it’s nice. I had to add some extra strap to the neck to make it long enough, for instance. |
|
While I was at the fabric store finding cotton strap for MY apron, I found mini cotton strap!!! So I also found some red fabric that was similar enough to the canvas of my apron. The part that was tricky was finding a fabric that mimicked the pocket fabric on mine. After much hunting, I found this fabric in the flannels, which has as similar visual effect! |
|
Laying it out after cutting out the basic shape. |
|
Pinning the hems, and testing pocket size to get the right proportions. |
|
All sewn, and I’ve added eyelets to mimic the grommets on mine. |
|
All done! I hand stitched the straps. |
|
Hanging with mine in the kitchen! |
|
Pookie and Mommy handling dinner with panache! |
|
He’s helping dry the dishes afterward, too. What a helpful bear! |
Yours,
Sarah
