My sister recently contacted me about donating something to an upcoming charity auction in Farmington, Connecticut. She never told me what she wanted so all the while I assumed I would donate some baby clothes from my vast collection of hand made stuff. Little did I know she had something else in mind for this event. She ended up asking me for two adult aprons for the auction.
I said "Sure! But I don't have any made. When do you need them for?"
She said, "I am going back to Connecticut tomorrow, can I have them then?"
I said "Uh Oh!" as it was 10pm the night before she had to go.
So what did I do?
I made them first thing the next morning. But by then my sister had already left. I sent them to her via first class mail and she is hoping to receive them by Friday. Do you think she will like them?

This fabric was donated to me a year or two ago and I never could figure out what I could make out of it that would do the pattern justice. I am glad I gave it time to sink in to my fabric collection because when the apron request came, I realized I had the perfect pattern in my collection!
I originally thought I was going to put the white floral band on the other apron and the yellow butterfly band on this apron. At the last second I switched them and TADA!! It worked out great!
