grey and white

I have continued to sew for myself this month.  Today was actually the first day that I tried to quilt on the machine.  Right now my separated shoulder is screaming.  I am looking forward to a nice soak in a bit.  But, because I have not been able to finish one of the quilts that is in progress, I made another pinnie.  There have actually be more then a few dresses but many look the same unless you know what to look for.

The white was an apron that was much too heavy to where here except for a few days a year.  It is a hemp linen and the first apron I made with it was actually double layered.  There is a matching piece of green waiting.  Then, I tried another apron design.  Did not work.  So the cut apart apron has been sitting.  But with a bit of stitching and the addition of a tannish green bit of linen, it became a pinnie.

As you can tell, I am very hard on white aprons.  They become so stained so quickly.  I could actually do what I have read one woman does.  White aprons and head covering only for baking.  I am not quite that organized.  I will just enjoy this until I feel it needs to go into the rag pile.  In another words, wearing it to the hardware store is a bad idea.
