I can say that this particular project was not exactly what I expected. I finished the apron first, a couple weeks ago. It was larger than I imagined and as soon as I was done I wished I had gone with the other apron pattern in the book which goes over the chest.
This evening, Lisa A. came over for some sewing fun and I got started on my matching oven mitt. Originally, the plan was to have a pair, but having completed the one—one is enough!
I'm making my way through this heavier khaki fabric that I originally purchased for my bag. It's sturdy, which is great, but it's not that exciting. Anyway, it was a little thicker than the mitt instructions called for, so turning it inside out at the end was quite the workout.
My take-aways for this project include learning to stitch a swirl and that and old towel can serve as sufficient batting for the mitt.
The final product:
