Fun New Apron Patterns from Laurie's Gifts-Giveaway of a Twirly Skirt Apron

Owner Laurie from Laurie's Gifts has brought to light a new type of apron to The Apron Goddesses which I think is too cute for words. She calls it her Twirly Skirt Apron and she said, "When my girls were little, I made them a LOT of twirly skirts-- full circle-skirts that they loved to twirl about in. Well, they still love them, and I hope you will too."

Therefore, Laurie has sponsored the giveaway of this Marseille Twirly Skirt Apron. At Laurie's Gifts you can find one of a kind creations or aprons made in sets of two.

Laurie said, "I name them after the title of the main fabric I'm using whenever possible. I've never been able to dream up with clever names for my products from my imagination!!!" But what she makes up for in her sewing of wonderful "dress" style aprons mitigates any naming issues she may claim to have.

This model measures 29" from the bib to the bottom of the skirt. The long sash can be tied either in the front or back as desired. Cute pocket on the bib is about 6" wide, and keeps your cell phone handy. This apron is made from 100% cotton.

At Laurie's Gifts you can also find an assortment of Boutique Bags like this one. She offers a variety of fabric patters in this style. She constructs unique fabric purses using designer quilt fabrics, some vintage fabrics, antique trims, notions, and more. They are all made with high quality materials and are built to last.

And to the giveaway!!

To enter the giveaway for this fabulous apron from Laurie's Gifts, visit the boutique and choose your favorite item. Come back to The Apron Goddesses and make a comment naming which apron or other item you like best. That will give you one entry into the giveaway.

For five extra entries into the drawing create a blog post about this giveaway, leaving your permalink in your comment.

And for 10 extra, bonus chances at winning send in a picture of you or a family member wearing an apron. (Contact is above) No headless apron wearers please!! I will write up your "apron-ography" in the weeks to come.

  20. Hey Hey my LAYDAY!!! I've been a LOUSY bloggy buddy lately I know, I'm SO SO SO sorry.. truly. The stress level at the Nugget lair has been like code Hot Wings, so I just haven't been "myself". But I'm making an effort now (and avoiding having to watch the Yankee's game BONUS!).

    I simply LOVE all her Twirly Skirt aprons, it's a toss up between Marseille which matches my kitchen decor and Sweet Cherry.. but I like Poinsettia too!

    Can you email me darling? I need to pick your Goddessy brain.

  50. I have to admit that I like a whole lot of those pretty aprons. But around the farm I think the chef's apron with the fruit on it would come in the most handy.
    Great job on all the aprons. They are so cute!
    Have a great day.
