Is your Chapter ready for the next project? How about Chapter aprons from the unofficial "Apron Society"?!?! I will be so excited to see pictures of what you all come up with! Chapter aprons can be anything you want - one apron with bits and pieces from each Chapter member, or individual aprons for each member - it's up to you! I'm so excited to see them! No need to send them to the Farm - these are just for YOU!!! But, please, be sure to post a photo if you can - I can hardly wait to see what all you creative farmgirls have up your sewing sleeves!
XOXO, Libbie

Grace, I got the same book for my birthday last November and read it all through right away! I love it! I would love to see pictures of aprons anyone has made. I'm in the middle of a quilt project that was supposed to be a Christmas present, so it's rather late. . .when I'm done with that, I will make an apron too!

Dear ladies, there is a delightful book (I received one for Christmas) simply called, "The Apron Book" by EllynAnne Geisel. Andrews McMeel Publishing, LLC.
"Making, Wearing and Sharing a Bit of Cloth and Comfort".
There is even a full size Bib Apron pattern enclosed at the back of the book.
I love mine. It motivated me to pull out my sewing machine and sew a kitty motif hostess apron just for fun & giggles.

Hi Libbie,
The Far-Flung Farmgirls are in the process of swapping patches for each of us to sew on our own apron, so photos will be coming when the swapping is over! I am still trying to decide what apron to make to sew my patches on, but my first one arrived today - a gorgeous vintage fruit label from Tina, so I better get sewing!
Best wishes,
Jayne |

My curiosity is getting the better of me... any aprons that are ready for photo posting yet? I hate to admit that mine is cut out...and sitting right on top of my sewing machine, patiently waiting...
XOXO, Libbie

There are some really fun apron patterns in the new MJF magazine - both the free ones and the ones for sale -- if any Chapters are lacking for patterns, check it out!
