Aprons for Wheeler Mission Center for Women and Children
I had wondered for a year what I would do with the Christmas fabric yard sale find from Grandpa. Then I heard from Kathy, the kitchen helpers could use more aprons. This year I used a Simplicity pattern for more precision, same fabric straps and a couple of key rings for the neck strap adjustment. Four aprons even have pockets! The delivery included some towels from Target and 6 crocheted pot-holders (thanks to Julie’s instruction).
Then there was the fall themed fabric that netted 5 more aprons and striped fabric featuring contrasting pockets. Like the Christmas project, I added coordinating towels from Target and crocheted pot-holders.

2009 was the year of my first apron project. When the request came out, I immediately thought of recycling curtains. There was enough fabric to make six of each type. I copied the pattern from one of my own aprons and used strap by the roll from JoAnn’s Fabrics. Kathy, Kevin and Bobbi volunteer in the Wheeler Mission kitchen. It is a privilege to support their work.
