I'm guest blogging at Sew We Quilt today and my tutorial is a tea towel apron.
The 2 aprons are sewn following the same tutorial.
They can be tied at the front or the back
and the straps can be sewn to the back or the front of the apron bodice.
2 different looks with simple changes.
The toweling and the coordinating fabrics are from Moda
My friend Cori has an online fabric shop in Canton Michigan and
and she has the toweling at her Crazyquiltgirl Fabric Shop.
She currently has 18 different choices of tea toweling available
and she is always adding more to her shop.
You will find Cori's prices and customer service simply the best.

...and now I promised a little show and tell...
I've finished a few UFO's...the first one has been quilted for a number of years
and just needed the binding.
The fabric is Lightning Bugs by Heather Ross
the back is Kona cotton and I think the color is sky.
I used a two sided binding.
It was machine quilted by Liz Bowman, Milan Michigan.
The next quilt needed just the binding also
and it, too, was quilted by Liz Bowman.
The third quilt is a small lap quilt, also pieced years ago...
... it was a quilt top used to practice long arm quilting on my Gammill.
It is a simple meandering and any little girl would love to cuddle with it.
The binding is on and I now have 3 finished UFO's...I'm pretty happy.
I have 2 more of the princess quilts that just need the binding.
They were quilts used to practice meandering on the long arm.
I think I will use a 2 sided binding on them.
I am really liking the 2 sided binding...
...the quilts are about 30" by 36"...a nice lap quilt for a little girl.
They will be donation quilts...now I want to make 3 boy ones.
