"New" Apron Pocket Swap…
"One on One" & No Sewing involved, It's your choice!
Stephanie's "One on One" Apron Pocket Swap:
1. Newheart ~ Margie
2. Shawna
Will you swap a Pocket with me??  …
I would like to collect Apron Pockets from everyone to eventually make up a really large Wall Hanging, pillows, etc. So please contact me if you'd like to send a pocket to me and I'll add to my list. I will also swap a pocket back to you. I'm going to fill my home with Farmgirls at Heart!!
It only needs to be a single layer of fabric cut into a pocket shape of your choosing. I will be appliquing them so the edges can remain raw and they can be any shape. You can use new or vintage fabrics, feedsacks, trims, doilies,whatever you want to use!
If you have time to embroider on it that's fine, if not I will machine embroider your screen name, name, state and year once I receive them. So that makes it easy for you depending on how much time you have.
Post here on the topic or click on the link below if you'd like to swap a pocket shape with me!
Here's the sign-up for Apron Pocket Swap:

Hey Everyone,
Everyone's pockets are awaiting my return to home. That could be at Thanksgiving or as late as Christmas. So don't think I've forgotten y'all, ok?
We finally get out of this small hotel room on Sunday and move to the apartment. One of the two rooms I use as my home studio is much bigger than this room I'm in right now..LOL
I'm totally challenged when I think of only a car load of my fabrics and gadgets coming back with me on the next trip. Yeah, yeah..I know, I need some cheese with this whine..
I've had so much fun since we arrived exploring all of the fabric shops and meeting some wonderful ladies too! So guess I just have to buy more fabric while I'm here and enjoy my other stash when I go to the other house.
okie doke..just wanted to update y'all on the pocket swap so you wouldn't wonder where they are.
Talk to ya soon, Stephanie

Hey Y'all,
I would like to wind up the Apron Pocket Swap by Halloween. So send me your pockets by say Friday, November 2nd..
Either post on this topic or send me an email that this time will work for you
I am changing the swap idea as of today, October 10th, in the original post on page 1 as an "open swap" for one on one swaps the same way that Sunshine is doing her signature blocks swap. Everyone will make their own deadlines and swap with whoever they want to. You can use this topic to keep track of your pocket swaps.
I would like to collect Apron Pockets from everyone to eventually make up a really large Wall Hanging, throw and pillows. So please contact me if you'd like to send a pocket to me and I'll add to my list. I will also swap a pocket back to you.
It only needs to be a single layer of fabric cut into a pocket shape of your choosing. I will be appliquing them so the edges can remain raw and they can be any shape.
If you have time to embroider on it that's fine, if not I will machine embroider your screen name, state and year once I receive them. So that makes it easy for you depending on how much time you have.
Talk to ya soon,
Stephanie

Well Bonne,
You are used to a well structured swap and being asked to make lots of it! LOL This is very low impact...You can make 2 regular sized apron pockets or make 1 large sized (that could be vertically stitched for a multi-part once sewn on)....it's that simple..so that's the amount you will receive back..either one large or 2 regular sized..
Now you are welcome to send in as many as you get addicted to making Once the actual swap takes place some folks may wind up with the surprize of an extra pocket in their package.
So...you see how low key it is...just 2 pockets or 1 large one..your done..kapputtt..over...unless you get hooked on them like the mini's..LOL
Since it's only been recently that more and more ladies are showing interest in tne this section of the forum I'm leaving this swap open for several months...so you've got plenty of time to make some pockets!
Hope you join....let me know, OK??? Thanks

I have finished 2 regular pockets. I will get them in the mail tomorrow. I hope they are ok. Bonnie, If I understood the directions right, you either do 1 large pocket or 2 regular size pockets. Stephanie has the info on her blog.

Hey Frannie,
Why not join in the Apron Pocket Swap I've already started?
It's been ongoing since July.
You can use anything you wish to make your pockets! That's all part of the fun
Hope you will join this one instead of beginning a new apron pocket swap...

Hey Cheryl,
Welcome to the Pocket Swap!!
I haven't posted any pockets yet but you can finish the edges so they are read to top stitch on or you can leave the seam allowance for turning under to then be sewn on or you could also have a lined pocket with a topstitch and then the person that adds it will add another topstitch when they sew it to the apron..
The pockets can be standard sized, one large size that can have multi compartments or it could be a half moon shape...just let your imagination rule!
I will be posting some soon...
