**** For The NEW Halloween Mini Apron Swap*****
**** Sign Up See Posts starting on Page 34!!! ****
Glad to have ya Girls!!! 
Kathie
*********************************************************************
Alrighty Girls!!
You asked for it.. So here we go!
So it doesn't get over whelming..I think we should do groups of 10.
I know.. I want more then 10 Mini Apron's on My Garland.. But let's play this first one by ear.. & have just 10 in each group.. & if you think tou can manage a second set of 10.. then sign up for a second round..!
We'll each make 10 Mini Apron's about the size of the Palm of your hand.. Make sure that you have some nice long Apron strings so they can be tied to the next Apron.. You might include at least one tiny Pocket..Just like we do for the ones we send to our Sister Farm Girls when they haven't been feeling so well.. & you can include a little paper wish if you'd like.. just like you do a little tuck in!!
Make sure to put your name somewhere on your Apron So we can all admire it later & remember who made it..
So let's do it this way..
We'll have a friendly deadline of July 15th to get them in to me..
E-mail me your info.. Addresses.. phone etc.. & i'll forward on my address if you don't have it yet..
Once i recieve them.. I'll send them out in groups of 10..
& I'll do it as someone had suggested in the Mother's Day Swap that I was in..They'll just go out in the order that they are recieved in!
What do you think?
You'll have to bear with me! & help me out.. As this will be my very first time Hosting a swap..!!
When you send in your mini Aprons to Swap.. you'll also send in your Postage.. which i have to figure out.. As I said.. So new at this.. I am asking for help.. A couple people are helping me with that end of it.. so i'll post that info tomorrow hopefuly.. ( Can't imagine you'll get yours all finished tonite & ready to mail yet anyway!!) & remember .. no rush!! you have until July 15th to get these to me..
i wanted to give you plenty of time since I know we have quite a few swaps & other projects going on right now too..
 .. ONE .. more thought on this one.. !!
I think it was Frannie that thought of this.. While we are making our 10 each for the Swap.. let's each make that 11.. & that extra one will be for MARY JANE!! So once we get them ALLLLLL in & finished.. & send her a package from ALL of us, with one from everyone that made one for the swap!! So.. She'll have her very own Mini Apron Garland too.. Even bigger & better !!She'll have gotten not just the 10.. but one from all the groups of 10 that we get!!!
GREAT idea Frannie!!!
ok.. i think that covers everything that I'm thinking for Now.. But i KNOW that i've left somethings out.. we'll figure it out as we go.. But.. We'll have a good time doing it!
Love ya lots girls!

HIYA<
Mine arrived on tuesday, they are so cute. thanks Kathie for being the coordinator and doing all that work
I took my ones from the last swap and sewed them together with buttons, as some had shorter ties than others, on the ones that had really long ties I let them hang down under the button.
they are so cute
