Elia's Apron
My goodness after days.... on the Internet.... looking at patterns for little girls aprons.... sorting material .... ...............I finally completed my master piece............. I am very happy with the end result.....it took 1 complete day......... then 4 hours mucking around with the trim................
it would have been a lot less on the pocket ............and spotlights cash register...............if I purchase one...but after all that won't be a Grannie Original hey??????
Our Grand Babes ..the things we do.....but Guess What I Love the Pleasure
Thanks for Visiting
