How many did I need?

I had planned to make a little apron dress size 12-18 months. I was going to make it reversible by using a Liberty fabric with small watering cans, and a pale pink one with strawberries.

I found my patterns, pinned them to the fabrics, cut it all out and left it in my sewing room for a couple of days.

This morning I wanted to have a look at the parts again, and wondered why I cut out 4 pieces. You see, the apron dress only have 1 pattern piece, so I needed 2 pieces which were going to form the finished apron!! I had 4.....

Clever me...I had cut out parts for 2 apron dresses!!!

Where did my mind wander off to when I cut it out??

The final pair of Espadrillos


The final pair of Espadrillos, originally uploaded by lille-ursus.

All the pairs have now been stitched. I simply had to have a dotty pair as well.

I'm thinking of using the embroidery on a bag, but still haven't decided yet. Maybe I should cut the whole thing up and use the espadrillos pairs one by one?

Have a great weekend.....
