This looks so useful – is there a link to download it?
LOL, Considering I JUST posted it! http://vpll1912project.org/download-pattern-request/
I love the Child’s Apron #0500 La Mode Illustre. Can’t see the back, but it must crisscross. The embroidery detail and the binding around the edges give this apron simple charm. I’m looking forward to sewing a quarter-scale toile, but may eventually make one for myself. I think I’d really enjoy wearing it – and can visualize it being rather chic.
I just received the link to download this pattern today. I am excited to start it. I have two little ones that would love to have one of their own. I might just have to make two. Wish me luck. Follow my progress here http://cakeengineermom.blogspot.com/
