petit bon appetit

This post is less check-out-my-project and more you-should-put-this-tutorial-on-your-list...geez, that's wordy. Oh well, you know what I mean.

The pictures were taken in a blur before running out the door to the birthday bash, but I had to share the project so you can make it yourself!

My son's friend just turned 4 and I made him a little chef dress-up set. I used two tutorials from ikat bag. 

For the chef's hat, I used this one (it's adjustable with velcro!).

I was just winging it for the apron, which wraps all the way around to tie in the front.

And I used this tutorial for the oven mitt (but I cheated by using pre-quilted fabric...).

I added an initial applique, of course (using Michael Miller Dick and Jane fabric).

The best part? His mom told me that he wore the apron & hat ALL day until bedtime. The oven mitt was a hot commodity as well, resulting in fights between him and his younger brother over who got to wear it. Usually, I'm a big fan of harmony in the house but when the discord stems from my handmade creation...I admit it made my day.
