Love the John Deer Fall one! That is the cutest fabric. Mind sharing where you got it? I'd love some pillows for my front porch bench.

Diana,
That is so nice of you to say.
I love you yarn. The one with no name, reminds me of peppermint or a candy cane.
I know what you mean about naming.
I love you blogspot too. Grace

Karen,
The green stars will change to blue after you hit a certain number of posts.
The red hex is given out when you become a member of the farmgirl sisterhood.
There is information on that on the main page of the forum.
Get to posting so you can become a true blue farmgirl!!

Thanks for the great wesite www.sweetpeasandangels.com, I loved the fabric there, levisgrammy! Had to order some for a quilted bag I love to make. I have been making so many totes and quilted bags that I had to set up a blog so I could start selling them!! Either that or move for more room. Ha! Country Grace your aprons are a delight. We do not live far from each other. I am just west of Spokane. All my family is in Seattle. I was wondering if you use single fold bias tape on your aprons, I have a little stash, maybe we could do a bit of a barter? I can always use little snippets of fabric for my totes. Email me if you like. Karen

This is adorable in so many ways. The apron pattern is a classic --- always a favorite, the "cobbler".
Where did you find the Charlie Brown fabric? My present source for fabric is Keepsake Quilting.
If anyone knows of a great quilt supply / fabric shop online to recommend, please let me know.
Am looking for sock monkey print fabric.

Hi Grace! I just sent you an email about how much the Charlie Brown apron is and then I noticed that your other ones are $20 sorry! Is this one still available? I would love to buy it if it is!
