Budget Birthday gift

represent!
Stash busting birthday apron for a cousin's kid who is turning 3 =D I hope it fits, I don't have a local 3 year old to try it on =(

That pink stuff is mighty stretchy, and the polka dotted is not. I had a few issues (don't look too close at the heart shaped top lol)
the D rings are off the trampoline mat which the dogs tore up, I thought they'd be easier to handle for a kid than trying to tie it.

now if only I had access to a pink feather duster or something to go with it. I thought about making some felt cookies (because I only have cream and greys in felt right now) but my animals never left felt food alone, and I suspect birthday girls myriad of pets would behave similarly.

I based it loosely on http://gluesticksblog.com/6-in-1-apron  you know, without actually making a pattern or measuring much. I don't think I attached the bib part to the skirt correctly, but I used the iron and that's what counts :P
