they can all be the same, or you can make a variety..mine were all pretty much the same, but carmen was using a bag of clothes destined for the dumpster to make hers!

I am heading back down to the sewing room after dinner to make a couple extra,,,,how fun to see every one get excited & involved with the minis....hummm, maybe we will break our record when it comes time to make the Christmas ones.....I have my fabric, I just might have to start sewing them now just to get ahead of the game!
Jess, your little Carmen, is adorable in her apron.
How wonderful that she enjoys the creativity & art of sewing.
ok, ladies I am off the the kitchen to rustle up some grub for dinner.
Oh, I posted 2 pic's from the Buggy Barn on my blog, feel free to take a peek & rememeber to click on the picture to see it closer up.

Hi everyone,
Susan ( the soap maven or not quite june cleaver) asked me to post to you all that she is on the way to take her Mom to the hospital. Her Mom is still bleeding, basically hemorrhaging, she thinks all the blood she received in the transfusion she had the other day. She is being admitted to the hospital tonight and then in the morning the doctor wants to cauterize the bleeding in her bladder. She is not sure how long she will be in the hospital. Keep her Mom in your prayers, Susan also. They are both tired. Maybe this will make her Mom a little more comfortable as she is in much pain.
Thanks,
Michelle

I asked her if she wanted me to post it someplace else, but she said on the mini apron thread. I am thinking she may give an update on another thread in a day or so when she knows more.
I cannot seem to get motivated to sew, between school and housework I am swamped! I am going to get it done!! I won't be first this time though, thats for sure!!! I am going to get my girls to help me. Little mama can help cut and my older daughter wants to start sewing so this would be a good first project. She can do some straight lines, and I can do the wonky stuff! Hey, my husband comes home this week, he may be enlisted too!!!!
Thank you all for your well wishes for Susan's Mom.

Carmen...you're just adorable in your new apron!!

OK girls, I feel some motivation coming on. Work sucks, DH is out of town for a couple days, the house is a mess, but what the heck--who needs a clean house anyway? I bought my Halloween fabric and itsy bitsy bias tape last week. Hmmmmm.........I do believe I'm feeling a sick day coming on! (I have 35 of them "banked", so I s'pose I could take one without really feeling too bad)

Off to finish yo-yo's and get started on mini's!!

....and praying all the while for Clare and Susan & her mom.

Kathy: Take that sick day!! I plan on doing that a few times this year too so that I can enjoy life a little more even though work is good and I do like it for the most part. It's just too busy during the school year and I need a day or two to myself to relax and do "homey" stuff.

I have not even started my minis, but I do love doing them now that I know I can do those little seams and pieces.

Okay, here is one of my kid's poems to get ya'll in the mood for the Halloween mini's!! This is done is snappy cryptic rhyme. Hope you enjoy!!


HALLOWEEN

Dark sky
Witches fly

Headless horsemen
Gallop by.

Ghosts rise
Frightened cries

Ghouls and goblins
Moan and sigh.

Werewolves howl
Pumpkins scowl

Hissing black cats
Slink and prowl.

Halloween is here tonight.
Grab a bag and grab a light.

Ring the bell
Trick or treat.

Be kind to others
On the street.

Behind masks
Others wear

Monsters may be lurking there!

Boo!!!... Eek!!!...

Door to door
More and more

Candy piles
On the floor.

Halloween is here tonight.
Full moon fun...
Good night. Good fright!

Sheryl-lyn...when do you get back to school?

Georgann....great poem, you have a budding writer on your hands! You need to have it illustrated and publish it on your blog.

Kathy...enjoy the sick day!! It will do your health a world of good!

It is my goal to make at least one apron today, if I don't get started I won't get it done on time. Knowing me I will try to have mine done before my husband gets home. Back to home school and cutting aprons! Oldest needs to get on here and do Spanish lessons............adios!!!

Bev, I'm the budding writer! LOL......But it probably sounds like a kid wrote it. It was my inner kid! LOL

Glad you like it though.
