Custom Apron Creations by SEW SASSY: Sassy vs. Spooky

How "Sew Sassy" got started...

I was in search of a fun, retro apron. Difficult to say the least...

And when I found that apron I was shocked to learn it was out of my price range. So what's a girl to do?! SEW (of course)!

I love to craft and have been for a big part of my life. I've knitted scarves and blankets for loved ones. I've painted and created ornaments during the holidays. So why not sew (which I haven't done for at least 20 years). But like I told a friend "It's just like riding a bicycle", kinda. :)

After I created my first apron, I decided I would make some as gifts. And as that gift list grew, and friends saw the aprons that I created, they started inquiring if I would sell them?

I found myself contemplating "Why not"?

"Sew Sassy" is the outcome of my efforts in sharing unique retro aprons with those who enjoy color, creativity, and one-of-a-kind aprons that are sure to make you smile.

If you have an idea, favorite color(s), hobby or passion and would be interested in a retro apron created JUST FOR YOU; then send me an e-mail and I'll do my best to put something together that will sure to please you or that hostess with the mostess.

Details you should know...

Apron = Size fits most.

Instructions on "How to Fold your Apron"

Unique/One-of-a-Kind = No two aprons are alike. I want to make each apron with it's own personality. If you see an apron you like; remember I might not have the same material for another. So grab it while you can.

Custom Order = Can take as few as 10 days, but up to as much as 4 weeks (depending on the time of year). If you need it ASAP there will be a $7 RUSH fee. If you have the perfect fabric simply mail it to me. After I receive the fabric, your fee for the apron will be $23 (which will include the bag).

IMPORTANT= choosing that perfect fabric. Make sure it's 100% cotton; preferably Novelty or Quilt Fabric.

No Stretch fabric "please".

Any questions; please contact me!

Yardage required for Custom Order= 32 inches for Apron and bag; and 22 inches for contrasting fabric pocket, ruffle at bottom of apron, and apron ties.

Don't forget= 2 packages of color contrasting Medium "ric rac" for edging.

How tall are you= Your height is helpful; so I know if I should make shorter or longer. Thanks!

The wrap around = If you'd like the apron ties to wrap around to the front where you can drape a towel to dry your hands, simply state "wrap around" when ordering and let me know your waist size. This way I can make certain you have enough length in the ties.

Returns/Refunds: I want you to "love" your new retro apron. If you are not 100% satisfied or if it does not fit; simply return the apron (at your cost) within 7 days of purchase and I will gladly refund you the cost of the apron (shipping not included in refund). Sorry - custom orders are not refundable.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to check back often, where new creative ideas are sure to unfold.
