Stash busting: Autumn apron

Hello, everyone.

Today's stash buster is an apron, using a piece of fabric inherited from a family member and an extra Four-Patch square.

Other stash items used: pumpkins fabric for the straps and pocket lining. Orange wood-grain scrap for the towel loop. A D ring that was lying around the supplies drawer for the neck tie-strap.

The apron pattern was one of those free ones that gets passed around as an ad, picked it up years ago and traced it onto pattern tracing fabric. (Then added a pocket. The pocket addition has been done higher up before, but open chest pockets are inclined to drop a cell phone into the pot of soup, or the trash can, when the wearer leans over. Not a good plan!)

This project has been around, nagging me, for a while. It's good to have it out of the sewing room.
