I was cruising through ebay, typed in Vintage Aprons and scrolled about 1/2 down when I came across a simple apron made to hold ones clothes pins while wearing out hanging laundry.
It had 2 bids, up to $10.56 wow!
If I hadn't packed away my sewing machine I'd be sewing one for myself!
One could really get creative making an clothes pin holder apron!

I saw this pattern.... but since it is a drawing, I just figured that I would save the money and draft one. But it is on dale this week for $4.46




and it would be really cute in this fabric



Ir I have this cute pink fabric with a mom & kids doing laundry

Yep, ...it's really easy. It makes a great apron for those house cleaning moments..LOL Holds a swiffer and everything else you need and gives you storage for stuff that you are picking up along the way.

Peace, Stephanie

I did find this gem on etsy

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=6347798

But I just got 2 yards of that fabric, So it looks like I will be sewing my own.

Simplicity has an apron that has pockets in front for holding clothespins. It's number 4282.

Yes there is, and it looks very simple to make out of exactally 1 yrd of fabric. But I think it should be as cute and as fun as possible.... doing laundry is not fun.
