I saw this apron idea on a quilt blog last year (I can't seem to find the link, but I know I have it saved somewhere, so I'll add it later because I know I'm going to make a few more of these this year!) The apron is reversible and about 27" square. (Please excuse the unvacuumed floor in the background!)Below is a microwavable heating pad filled with rice (2kg!) and lavender made with IKEA fabric a friend gave me last summer. I rarely miss having a microwave - just at Thanksgiving, when I have a craving for microwave popcorn, and when I'm in need of a rice-filled wool sock for a sore muscle!

That's a great little apron . . .I really like the fabrics you've chosen.
Your fabrics co-ordinate very nicely. I made one of those last year in oranges.
The apron will make a great gift.
those rice bags make great hot pads for hiding in a bed on a cold winter night for feet to curl up against too :-)
Love the Apron!
That is a great apron, and the pattern looks so simple! Thanks!
What a pity the rice pack isn't fabric. It would make a great background for wonky houses!
Have a good week.
I love that apron. I have seen it somewhere but don't remember where. Would love to see the link.
You've been busy and the projects look great.
I love the apron, too! The colours also co-ordinate perfectly with the colours in my kitchen...:)
Keep on seeking that apron link, will you please? It's adorable!

Dear Hedgehog:
I am an English teacher at Oaxaca, Mexico, and my wife, a French woman, works teaching some poor women in my city to sew and make some things to sell and get a little money for their children, and start dreaming about having a better living. Your blog is so full of love and inspiration...I love it! I'll show it to her! She´s in France right now, because my mother in law passed away.
Please keep doing that marvelous work. LOve:

Love your apron!! I remember my mom going into the kitchen, and the first thing she would do is put on her apron. Pretty fabric in yours.
The apron is lovely - maybe I saw something similar on Joyce's (in Canada) blog?
And 2kg of rice! I hope you weren't posting that gift LOL
Hey, I made a little dress out of that olive Ikea fabric, (predicting that big prints were going to be in...still waiting :-)
I like that apron pattern! wanna try it.
