It's been a few weeks since my last update. I've been busy making aprons and getting my artworks ready for the show. Here's the latest: A butcher style apron with stacked teacups appliques.
I'm a fine arts artist but I'm also a lifelong sewer and apron lover. A creative type, I'll try most any craft. I crochet, knit, and do beading as well.
In the real world, I'm an engineer, which gives me insight into construction and design of my aprons.
Dovie was my grandmother. I have several of her apron patterns from the 40's and 50's. My mother contributed a few of hers from the 50's as well. So it seems only fitting that when I started making aprons, I would use Grandma as my inspiration.
