I was looking through some photos from one year ago and came across pictures of my first sewing projects.  I think my very first project was a bib, but the first things I really enjoyed making were clothes for my girl.  I made 2 apron shirts using Butterick’s pattern 5019.  They were easy for a beginning sewer like myself, and required a yard or less of fabric and some bias tape. 

Oh, how I miss combing out that gnarly tuft of hair at the back of her head… 

….as if!

She still wears these shirts- they are shorter on her now of course, but perfect over jeans or leggings. 

Okay, I need to go squeze her now.
