"Motha Teresa"



After six months of stalking blogs and 365 days (plus a couple weeks), I have finally finished one of my projects for the pay it forward task. I promise I did not forget. Sometimes it just takes me a while to fully complete my project how I want.
This one I call "Motha Teresa." It's for Teresa. The color combo may seem odd together but I think it looks good and I hope Teresa likes it too. The brown was picked with a cowgirl in mind. Teresa doesn't mind getting dirty and roughin' it a little. She also is a Tennessee girl by birth and at heart so I couldn't possibly go without some orange. The blue and flowers balanced out the brown and orange and added a little feminine touch. Teresa cleans up real nice and I think she looks pretty in light blue. With the fabrics picked and knowing what I wanted them to represent, I then had to come up with what I wanted to do with the fabric. After a few more weeks of stalking facebook and her blog I found she's a good baker. I thought an apron would be most appropriate to complete my thought process of fun and personal.
Teresa, sorry for the long wait. I hope it doesn't fall apart!
Autumn--seriously, yours is ALMOST done. You were tricky.
