I have never made an apron, big or mini in my life. But you are all talking about mini aprons and I thought I better try and figure this out. Now don't expect much, as Tasha would say it is a bit wonky. but if I can get this to work I will be making lots of them.

Nancy Jo-

I think it is cute! I am sure my first one will be a bit "wonky" as well. You can aways use the patterns in MaryJane's book and magazines and just not increase the size. :)

The bag you made is really cute with the hearts.
You could make some smaller hearts and use it to put your hand sewing needles in.
You would have to have to hearts too and some felt to put in the middle.
By the way Nancy what are you going to make with all the ribbon?
Just was wondering. Pinkroses

Sheila,
I use it to wrap small presents, and tie up some of my sachets, hair ribbons for the girls. I just like the looks of a basket of ribbon too. Good idea with needle case. Tasha made me one. They are the cutest thing. Someone just gave me a whole bag of wool and felt.

Sure looks like a mini apron to me! The ones that we have made for the farmgirls are about the size of your palm.

Really cute Nancy Jo, you did a great job.

Nancy Jo... I love it and I love that you describe it as WONKY.... that is a word I use all the time and my girls giggle everytime I do. My students love when I use wonky....

Great job Nancy Jo!!
