I'm still a beginner, in so many ways, with my sewing machine. I found an apron that I fell in love with and made me think of my Great Grandmothers on both sides of my family. I'm just not up to making it and was wondering if any of my sisters here could make one for me in trade for something?

I sell Lemongrass Spa products (they are handmade in Colorado) so I could trade some of those. I might have some wild plum jam left. I have a TON of organic, heirloom seeds (it's just a matter of finding them and figuring out what I have I know for sure I have a ton of corn but a random assortment of herbs, veggies and flowers). I could also trade some made in Montana items as well, like Huckleberry or Cherry products made right here in the valley. Let me know if you can make me an apron( I will try to post a photo of the inspiration in a few minutes) and if we could trade and for what! Thanks so much!!

Is it the shape or the material. The material is going to be very hard to find.

Diana, I like both the shape/style and material. I can't tell if some of it is embroidery or if it is all material. Also the colors, it really goes through all the seasons.

Hi Krystle,

I am by no means a seamstress so I can't help you out there. BUT, I did find a similar apron on e-bay if no one can help out:
