Birthday Apron

We were invited to attend the birthday party of a little neighbor girl who was turning four. I made her an apron using some home dec canvas that never seems to get used up no matter how much I use it. I just made the pattern up as I went along, and my calculations on the neck ribbon were off. So, to fix the problem without tearing it out, I added a second piece of ribbon to make a casing for a bit of elastic. Voila! It worked. The applique is felt. We also made up a dry cookie mix to go with it, and the kids decorated the recipe for it.
