| To this cute apron |
I love retro caravan stuff, even though our good old caravan is not retro it has a lot of retro bits in it. Anyway, last January my mother gave me a couple of caravan themed tea towels when she visited us whilst camping. I love love them but they are far too good to use to dry dishes.
In my current state of recovery I want to do craft but it needs to be quick. I spied the tea towels sitting on my sewing desk in my "to do" pile. (Well the visible "to do" pile, I actually have a "to do" cupboard!!!). Iron back the corners and stitch them down. Stitch on some grossgrain pink ribbon around the neck and some white for the ties. Ta Da... all done.
But now I think it is too nice for the caravan, so I have hung it in the pantry to use at home and dream of camping.
Linking to these places and crazy mum quilts.
Such a cute idea!
ReplyDeleteAn apron does better justice to the cute illustrations. A good refashion! I would probably have gone even further and framed the tea towel... It's however more practical like this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun redo!
