My friend Susan

a.k.a. "Aus", went on holiday to Florida in the late summer. When she returned she came for a visit with a little present for me.  She is always so kind.
This was it.
I pondered what to make with the 2 yards of fabric.
I came up with many ideas and then
Susan suggested an apron.  
I went in search of a fairly new pattern I have acquired and 
then went searching for co-ordinating fabrics.
The one with the little circles would be the lining

and that dark, dark ruddy brown would accent the apron.

I did my cutting.....not properly, but I did it only to correct it later
and sat for an hour or two sewing away while the washing machine
did it's thing.

I needed one button for the wee bit of trim at the top
but I found these in my "fancy" button jar
so they were going to be sewn on instead.
Ta-Da.......
here it is

Thank you Susan for always being so thoughtful.
