Toiles








I've chosen french toile in 100% cotton for these two very different aprons. They're both hard wearing and washable. They would look great hanging on a hook in the kitchen when not in use!
*Interesting Facts* Toile is the french for cloth. The most famous toile is Toile de Jouy, it takes it's name from a small french village near Versailles, where in 1760, a Barvarian called Christophe-Philipe Oberkampf established a cotton print factory.
