Two weekends ago, Boyfriend Smash and I went to a wedding for his former roommate (the one I made the photoless retro apron for).

After sifting through my Cynthia Rowley patterns, I settled on pattern #2406.

I recently finished an apron (AND FORGOT TO TAKE PHOTOS!) as a wedding gift for Boyfriend Smash’s old roommate’s bride to be (can we say seven degrees of separation?). I wanted to write a post about it:

b) to rave about my latest favorite sewing tool. Two very note-worthy topics!
