Vintage apron pattern art

Looking for that perfect apron that says housework 24/7?
There were only white women back then. And tiny features.

Mural done by a fan of Silvia Dekker’s work!

Silvia writes:

“Hi Lilla!,

I have been receiving some fan mail lately which is great! A while ago I met someone by accident who told me she was a big fan of my work. She had even painted some of my characters from a bedding design on the walls of her son’s nursery. She showed me some pictures and I couldn’t believe my eyes! I have attached a few pictures so you can take a look…

Best wishes,
Silvia”

This a picture of the mural she sent me.
