Unique Aprons

        I have been working on some more aprons. This one is made from only two dish towels which can be purchased at a dollar store for a dollar or less each. I am glad that my cousin pointed out to me that they are 100% cotton! So, I was sure to wash and dry them first so that the recipient of this apron isn't unpleasantly surprised upon removing it from the dryer after it's first wash. The teapot itself is a pocket and the strings are just cute ribbons I found on clearance at Michael's.

        Also, here are the pieces to the pocket I am going to put on my next apron. I placed a pencil beside it for scale. It is much larger than the last one that Lisa and I made without the rice. I will place this piece on a heavy dark brown linen. Pictures of the finished apron soon to come.

Sunset Fishing

        Ah, how I love early Spring. Lath took Curly and me fishing this week. We just went down to the small pond in the pasture. It was so nice outside. Just before dusk, maybe 70 degrees outside. We only caught a few good channel cats, a little mud cat, and a very tiny pond perch. It was just catch and release for fun. Curly enjoyed himself.
