Butterick B4087 - Retro Apron Cuteness!

I finished these aprons today. They're little extras for Christmas for Little Tornado's Nan and Great Nan.

I adapted the pattern a little and added the embroidery to personalise them a little. My first attempt at these, so hopefully they'll go down well! More about it over on my blog

Oh, and I did some cute little pin cushions using the same fabric, andsome vintage buttons, for my fellow "sewists" at college. (Also over on my blog)

Happy Christmas and a happy, healthy & prosperous 2011 to all at Sew Retro.
