Mad Madam Mel

Yesterday I finally finished an apron for doing housework. This is the first sewing project that I have completed which was not just a case of hemming rectangles (curtains sheets etc).

I'm rather please with it. Using gingham helped when it came to hemming, but I decided to place the gingham on the diagonal for the pocket, which I learnt makes the fabric stretchy, but it turned out ok. I also had to finish off the apron by hand as the sewing machine blew up, whoops.
