I finished the coffee-themed apron! I just had a few small motifs to do and the "sweet" lettering. This is a present for my friend, Beth, for the Grand Opening of her coffee shop. The apron is dyed with Rit Dye. It was so much fun to do. I picked out 6 colors, 3 in the brown family, 3 in the hot pink family and bought two skeins of DMC floss each. So I had to be creative. Once I was out of the dark brown I was out! Designs ironed-on from Colonial Patterns (Aunt Martha's) and Sublime Stitching. Making this apron was so much fun. I hope Beth enjoys wearing it as much as I enjoyed making it. I just entered it in a Sublime Stitching combo contest. Here is me modeling the apron.
And here is the concrete stepping stone my mom made. I painted it because she had to work on the last day of Vacation Bible School for adults. They take a month to "cure", so in early September the stepping stones will go out in my yard. It's painted with acrylic craft paint.
