2 purses to donate to
Sew Powerful Purse Project that I made from one red Starbucks apron! One apron pocket had black stains from a Sharpie marker, so I fused embroidered flowers and a heart over the stains to cover the stains and add a bit of bling at the same time.

| The flaps are both made using the leftover scraps from cutting the purse body pieces. I covered the flap in tulle and quilted it and then added the rickrack and yarn couching and buttons. |

| The Starbucks logo I used for the flap lining. I had to piece a couple of pieces of the red apron, so added some rickrack over the seams for additional bling. The embroidered flowers and heart are covering up the Sharpie stains on the apron pocket. The apron pocket became the front pocket without having to sew a separate pocket on top, which made the sewing and cutting a bit faster to do. |

nice upcycle of an apron
ReplyDeleteAwesome, Daryl! Embroidery is a great way to upcycle stained fabrics. Thanks for sharing with us at Monday Musings.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to cover the seams from seam the apron fabric together with rickrack.
ReplyDeleteWell done on the creative upcycling of these two aprons! And the stain is completely covered—it’s perfect. Love this cute lining too! Thank you for sharing and linking up.
