to where I might find the book A is for Apron. I've looked all over the place. Books stores (Barnes&Nobles and Borders) either have it sold out or have a recommendation where I can get it(They don't know when they'll get it again.)
I have it on hold at the library, but then I have to give it back when Im done..hehe...as if Ill ever be done. :)
Maybe Amazon.com?
Any suggestions? Id really love to read it but it seems to be evading me.

Jessie,
There is a thread on here that is something like 934 free crafts. They have some great apron patterns.
Blessings,

Thanks girls!! I didn't know there were errors like that in it either. Is there another book that is along those same lines that you all could recommend?

Please be aware that there are many known errors in that book! The publisher has posted the errata pages on their website. Someone mis-sized the pattern diagrams when they did the layout; therefore, some parts now have to be enlarged, say, 400% while another part on the same page might have to be enlarged 512%, etc.
One of the designers for that book has an Etsy shop and she sells copies directly herself for $14.50:
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=22303133
I purchased an apron from her and she is nice to work with and ships quickly.
I could not find the errata on my own at the publisher's site (despite searching) but found it via a link someone had posted elsewhere (maybe in an Amazon review?) which I no longer have... but I DO have downloaded files of the errata, so if you can't find them yourself online, please email me privately if you need them sent to you. I would hate for anyone to have a fruitless sewing experience.
Found it! http://www.larkbooks.com/expert/book-corrections
The book is very cute! I wish the publisher would have actually re-sized the diagrams in the corrections, though, rather than requiring users to make multiple enlargements of a single page at various sizes! Hope future editions will be correct...

I bought mine from Crafter's Choice Book Club. If you're a new member you get 4 books @ $1 each then have to buy
2 books over the next year. I've been a member for several years. They always have great deals on books or on shipping. That's actually how I was introduced to Mary Jane's Farm. I saw the cover of her Life book & I just had to have it! Then I got one for my sister too. Here is the link- http://www.crafterschoice.com/ecom/pages/nm/nmhomepage.jsp

Jessie,
I often purchase used books from Amazon. I make sure that they come from a non-smoking home (Allergies) and make sure that the seller's rating and feedback are high. Good luck :)

Thanks Chelsey!
I checked it out over there. They don't have many new ones, but quite a few are used. Any tips for using Amazon?? Things to look out for etc?
thanks
