Some of you know about my love of fashion and sewing. Here is my contribution to the world of modern fashion design. It is an apron dress. There is something nostalgic and appealing about aprons. Given the modern love of mid-Century modern furniture and home decor, this is sort of a modern take on the good old apron. The apron dress goes beyond the function of an apron, which was to cover up an outfit, to where the apron becomes the outfit. Modern women wear many different hats and I would say many different aprons. This apron dress can go from the home to the play date, to the office.

Here are a few of my most recent creations. One of these days I will start printing some fun stuff inside the card, but for now these cards remain blank and thus – versatile fulfilling my many gifting and greeting needs.
