I love aprons. I thought it would be fun to do a fall-themed apron swap. I also love mini-aprons. I have about 10 fall ones that I hang in my kitchen, but would love some new aprons to add to that.

So, I thought it would be fun to do an Adult and Mini Apron swap! I know not everyone can sew, so I thought the Adult apron can be sewn or store bought. For the mini apron, those who can't sew have used pinking shears to cut it out, or they will glue down the edges. I would like to suggest around 4" for the half size mini aprons, and 6" or so for the full mini size.

Details: make sure that the aprons are fall themed. You can swap more than one apron, if you'd like. Let me know in the signup how many you'd like to swap. Signups will be until September 15th, and mail out will be October 1st to give everyone time to buy/create their apron. If you need ideas for the mini apron, you can go here: https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/72902087710208603/. I think they would be a wee bit small, but I think the size could easily be changed. Tucks are allowed - but not required.

Have fun sewing and creating!

I'm back! Karen, thank you again for my lovely apron and mini! I also love all the goodies, especially the little journal and handmade card. You are so talented! Here are a few photos, but they really do not do it justice!

Yay Jill!! I’m so glad that you enjoyed your goodies. I so struggled with the mini apron…I made 3 or 4 until I got it the way I wanted it to look! :)

Karen!! Ohmygosh I received your package a few days ago but I’ve been out of town for the weekend and wanted to include photos here of the awesome aprons you sent me!! And so many extra goodies, thank you! But seriously I love the apron and cannot wait to put it to good use in my kitchen as our major baking season is about to begin!

I return home Sunday night and will share photos here! Thank you again!

First, Thank-You sew very much Joyce for my lovely Autumn apron and the mini one and lovely scent home made soap.




Now that I have a new Autumn apron, I have no excuse to not bake a Pecan Pumpkin Pie! Heeheehee!
Thank you again and for hosting such a sweet swap.

Love them! I need to make some more fall ones so I can make a garland. Or maybe I should start with Christmas ones! :)

Jill, your package arrived on Saturday. Thank you soooooo much! I love it. Your package went out a little late, I apologize…

Grace, I received the most darling mini apron from you! It's about the sweetest thing I've ever seen! I can see why these are so collectible, I may have to start making a few more myself now that I have some great inspiration! :)

Thank you so very much!

Hey Joyce,, here is what I have for a tracking number...

Hi Grace! If you send me the tracking number, I should be able to track it on my end through Canada Post. Sometimes it takes a while....so I'm not surprised! Canada Post is quite slow - and I live on the other side of Canada. Hopefully you receive my apron soon!

Hey Joyce, I hope my lil packet to you has not gotten hung up in Customs,, I can't believe it has still not arrived,,
I am only a 3hr drive (as the crow flies) to the Canadian boarder... I probably should have attached it to a Crow.., LOL!

Joyce, not sure how long it will take for you to receive the package, I doo have a tracking #, but once it leaves the States,, I don't think it tracks anymore..
I have the same issue when I send packages to Germany,, once they leave the States,, I just have to wait and hear from family that they received the package,,,

I will let you know when I receive your apron...
