Fabulous fat quarter aprons - Mary Beth Temple

In the world of sewing and quilting, a fat quarter is an 18 x 22 inch piece of fabric that's a constant part of a crafter's stash. Whether the fat quarters are picked up at a craft show or a fabric shop, they tend to multiply in supply because crafters grab them as keepsakes if the pattern catches their eye.
But, once the collection of fat quarters has piled up, what's a fun project to make with them?
Mary Beth Temple's new book, Fabulous Fat Quarter Aprons, offers a novel idea that taps into a booming cooking and lifestyle trend: turn fat quarters into stylish aprons and matching pot holders/oven mitts.
With more and more makers getting into the kitchen to cook and host, aprons are a thing.
They're functional and fun with a wink to the past.
