Three of my Quilter’s Escape students, Judy, Nancy and Marion, who doubled as our chauffeur and field trip mom, went to Ocean Wave Quilts in Eureka, California.  Great shop by the way.  I was directed to this fabric.  Oh my Gosh did I laugh.  I have always wanted to make an apron and after I found the perfect pattern all I needed was the perfect fabric.  Oh boy was this it!  Even my daughter and husband found it hilarious.

We ladies laughed as we mockingly pointed out our backsides in the fabric  pictures………..

Even a tattoo for those so inclined

Something looks very familiar in this picture besides the wine bottle!

and we also reminisced (sighed) about what they used to be………………………………………….

The one on the right of course!

Every time I wear this apron (when I get it finished) I will think of that trip to Ocean Wave Quilts and laugh all over again.

Interested in the fabric?

Mary Stewart for Elizabeth's Studio patt#1501 Ocean Wave Quilt's has a bolt and you can order from them. (ask for the Strawberry girls)

Sometimes there are fabrics ya just can’t pass up and obviously this one was definitely coming home with me.
