  ….. is a sort of silly word bandied about these days which just means you've made something 'new' out of something already existing. I think that has been going on for a very long time, like…. oh, flour sack dresses for little girls... but whatever. I'm a little cranky about buzz words in general. They smack of propaganda to me sometimes. However, even though I balk at the buzz, I very much enjoy using what's on hand to make something that one needs. And I need aprons. Aprons with pockets. Aprons so my hens can sit on my lap. [Yes, that is actually starting to happen. It's hard to get a picture of it though!] Aprons that are out of the ordinary. So, when I heard about making an apron out of a man's shirt… well, I had to try that. Many of the patterns use the front of the shirt. I wanted to use the back. Here is is...   The pocket is made from the cuff of the sleeve. Today I cut out another apron from an old tablecloth that my mother had set aside for her yard sale. I loved the fabric, so I made it up as I went along, and this is the result...   I'm wearing it now. I may never take it off.
