Child's apron. Plain stem stitch, but a sweet little design. I can just imagine a small person with this on, standing beside Mum in the kitchen asking if she can lick the beaters!

Patra's Place will be mostly about my linen collection, but also about my SINS (Stuff I'll Never Stitch), UFOs (UnFinished Objects) and projects that I am currently working on. Since I created this first blog, I have diversified somewhat! You can see the list of my other blogs, and my favourite websites and blogs by other people, on the sidebar.

I love this and your comment just seems to bring a loving scene to mind. Thankyou for such a pleasant thing to see and think about.
You're welcome! I have a few of these kiddies' aprons. One day I will get around to photographing them and putting them on here too...sigh..this is one blog that might just get 'blogged down' under the weight of photos!!
I love this too. Such a super line drawing. We had the grandchildren to stay last week end and Maisie has just learned to skip, so very topical too!
