I want to sew an apron that puts my personality into it. I'm not into the typical type of flowery.

Default Re: Finding joy in your homekeeping ministry

the apron letter has made me want one so much, just like some other posts have said, my question is, does anyone know of a good, easy pattern? I don't know how to use my mom's sewing machine, so I'll have to do it my hand and I want a soft, nice flowery one, not like ones you see in the stores. I have the fabric, but am a little stuck. Any suggestions out there?
I want to be like Laine when I grow up
What a blessing....
