Spring time kitchen linens and aprons

Hello my friends!  In the past nearly 7 years since I've been had my Thimbles, Bobbins, Paper and Ink blog, I think this is the longest it's been between posts.  There are a lot of reasons too.  The Mister is renovating our kitchen completely so I've not been able to make my weekly "What's under the Cake Dome Sunday" posts because I have no place (yet) to bake or cook.  The new appliances are due in this weekend and hopefully I'll get back to baking in my brand new oven. 

 

But I haven't been idle.  No I've not!  My sewing machine has been humming along as I've been creating  spring kitchen linens and aprons.  I've been having such fun with a new line of Tanya Whelan fabrics and decided to make some fun half aprons, kitchen towels and pot holders .

 

 

The first of the 8 sets of kitchen linens that I'll share today is this dainty rosebud and pink gingham fabric.  I pulled out all of the stops on detailing.  The apron has a beautiful and delicate eyelet lace and tiny pink buttons.  I love the double flounce at the hemline.

 

This apron is so pretty!  And since it is machine washable there is no excuse for saying "it is too pretty to wear."  I think it looks just as adorable with jeans as it does for a formal tea party.

 

The pockets on all of my aprons are rounded with a set in pleat.  That makes it perfect for going out to the garden or chicken coup and bringing in an egg or two or perhaps a tomato. 

This apron is in my ETSY SHOP HERE.

The second item that I'm tickled PINK about is the darling Oven Apron Kitchen Towels.  YES!  This kitchen towel will hang from your oven door handle or even your dishwasher handle and looks like a miniature apron. 

 

Because the front and back of the oven apron Kitchen Towels are the same front and back you actually have two towels in one making it easy to turn around if the front gets a little soiled. Again, it is completely washable.

This darling kitchen towel is in my ETSY SHOP HERE.

UPDATE!  The oven apron Kitchen Towel is SOLD.
 

 

The third part of the springtime kitchen linens is a set of two Hot Pads.  I wanted the hot pads to be pretty and dainty looking but I also wanted them to be functional.  I used a double layer of Insul~Bright heat reflective batting in the bottom layer of the hot pads and then for good measure added another layer of Insul~Bright to the top layer.  No burns fingers with these beauties.

 

And of course, you can find these Hot Pads in my ETSY SHOP HERE.

UPDATE!  These Hot Pads are SOLD!

 

As you can see, I've been very busy.  There are a lot more aprons, towels and hot pad listed...just in case you'd like to take a peek.  **smiles**  You can check everything out HERE.

 

Thank you for stopping by.  I have a number of spring items that I'm working on and I hope you'll check back to see what else is new.

 

Until next time,

 

Cheers!
