New fabric: 1980's nuts and herbs

One more:

I scored this 1980's or 1990's beige, tan, and blue herb-and-nut print on eBay. It's not the kind of thing I would normally pick but I kind of like fruit and nut prints, and it looks summery.


Much as I like it, though, I could never inflict it on one of my 1940's patterns, so I think I'll use it for Butterick 9579 (1959 or 1960), which is a back-wrapped apron dress (version A, the pink one at lower left):


With delft blue bias trim, of course:

Am I the only one who thinks the Wrights lady looks like Nancy Reagan?

I think this has great potential:


I definitely need the headband, though.
