Review of Kitchen Kouture

The Sew Mama Sew blog has a review of the Kitchen Kouture pattern from Indygo Junction. The reviewer, Modern June, gives the pattern 4 and 5 starts (in different areas of review). Here is an excerpt:

This is a great pattern for all sewers. Beginners might have a bit of trouble with attaching the waistband, though. I had to read that one over several time and I do waistbands all the time. Funny thing is that I almost do mine the exact same way. With the exception of attaching them both right sides together. I think it makes it look cleaner on the front.

Also included in this review are photos, fabric suggestions, and other modifications that might inspire you in your own apron making.

You can shop for this pattern through Google Product Search.

Aprons for the New Year

Blogger user Dawning Dreams wrote a post in her blog, Knitting in the Yarn Barn, about her January crafting projects, in which she posted a few photos of aprons that she has made. Here is an excerpt of what she has written:

It’s been a wonderful month. Being a stay-at-home-mommy sure does have it’s perks. I’ve been spinning yarn, knitting afghan squares for friends, sewing aprons, and I even started my first knitted shawl!

But you really should take a look at the post to see her photos!
