This year was my sister’s first Mother’s Day (as a mum).  As part of the celebrations I made her an Emmeline apron using fabric from Lizzy Houses’s Lizzy Dish collection.  I love Lizzy’s fabrics, they are so bright and vibrant.

When I first saw the Lizzy Dish collection I knew Kt would love it and that it would make a great Emmeline apron.  I’m really pleased with the way the apron turned out, it’s kitsch but easily wearable.

When I asked Kt if she wanted an apron she asked me to add a pocket to both sides.  I obliged happily.  I added darts into the pockets so that they have a similar shape as the skirt and it gives the pockets a gentle curve.

I love making this apron.  The pattern is so easy to do and the shape of the apron is so very flattering.
