The story behind the design .
I was as you guessed at Target and i saw this sweet dish towel set on sale and thought OK this could make 2 cute half aprons so i picked up 2 sets and did not give it another thought.
When i got home later that night I started playing around with the dish towels and thought Hmm could I make a full apron. I then placed the 2 dish towels on me like you would an apron and then Boom the idea hit me.
I got very giddy inside and very excited as my brain stated crating. I new this design would be great if I could just get it out of my head.
So this morning I took my scissors and started cutting I was just a little nervous but once I made the first cut I new it would all work out 15 mins later my apron was born. It was even better that I imagined.
I quickly tried it on and squealed with delight! I felt so spunky and put together and just darn cute in this apron just thrown over my sweats. I giggled again knowing that women every were would feel the same as they put this little apron on.
So what do you all think?

cute! a very mod kinda 60s-ish design. you are brave. me a scissors are a scary combo!
I love it! Springy and modern! My mom used to make aprons out of place mats for Christmas gifts, but I never thought about cute dishtowels! It might be my next project to try on my new sewing machine!
Good job! :)
Great design and very cute!! My only suggestion...I personally like a pocket on my aprons. Jen, does it have a pocket and I just can't see it?
Great job. It's so cute! I'm jealous!
What a great creation! It is super cute... Oh, how I wish I had a sewing machine. I wouldn't be as crafty, but I could play.
Jen, I love this! AWESOME! You are so talented. I love this because I like full aprons better than half aprons. I need my top covered because that's where I'm messy.
I think its adorable! very happy! I never thought to make my own apron but its a fab idea! I want to make one now!
Wow! I love it! And sice it only took you 15 minutes, you can make a bunch in no time! Very cool. I'm thinking it would actually be a good apron to wear with nothing else when your hubbie comes in the door. Did I just say that out loud? Sorry.
Wow I love it! That's the kind of apron I need-lots of coverage!
I LIKE IT!!!
I'm not big on apron's but that is really cute!!! Very contemporary.
Super cuteness, I love it.
You are soooo talented!!! Fifteen minutes??? Really??? Oh and thanks for stopping by!
Soooo cute! I was working on an apron today too. You got finished though, and I didn't. (Maybe I'll finish mine tonight.)
Super cute! Good job:-) I'd be afraid to start cutting too lol... Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog
I am loving all your aprons...
I posted about your lovely state today. Hope you'll stop by and take a look.
Love it! Very mod springy vibe! Love, love, love the colors! You are so talented!!
That is adorable!! I love it! That is definitely my style of an apron :)
i agree....everyone will love it!
Fantastic! I love that you used dish towels to make it! I love the print! I love repurposed stuff! You rock, again! :)
THIS is adorable! I love how modern the print is, yet the design has a 70's vibe.
