Today's Thought

"Neither Satan nor any other power can weaken or destroy your growing character. Only you could do that through disobedience. That is why Satan is so intently focused on tempting you to make decisions that will undermine your character. Satan is an accomplished master at making devastating choices appear attractive, even reasonable. So be careful. At this critical time of life you will be faced with many choices. The decisions you will make will profoundly affect life now and for eternity. Make them wisely and prayerfully."

--RICHARD G. SCOTT

I Love Lucy Apron

If you knew how much Cortney loves I Love Lucy shows
you would want to make her an apron so she can pretend she is Lucy.

I looked high and low for the perfect pattern but no luck.
This apron was a little more difficult because I took a pattern and tried to change it up a bit.
It took me longer to make this than if I would have followed the original pattern...
but noooooo.

Also if I would have had her here to try it on.

Anyway, it turned out ok. Not as great as I would have wanted it but still cute.



I actually made the white separate from the dark.
The pattern had you sew them together but I wanted her to be able to wash them separate so they didn't bleed.

I added buttons and button holes so she could just slip it off and wash the white part when she needed to.


I think she is sportin' it here pretty well.

Now all she needs is the red hair and bright lipstick.
She can mimic the attitude already.



Ape's Apron

Last Christmas, 2014, I made an attempt at some aprons for Christmas gifts.
This one was for April. 
The red tie is actually adjustable that goes around each side of the bodice and neck.
It turned out pretty cute. I haven't seen it on her yet so I hope it fit her TALL body.

If you look close on the one pocket I wrote
Ape

This apron was a lot easier to make than the one I made for Cortney.
