ROFLMAO Okay Kathi and Jessica, so funny, I don't know that I can get little pockets on either. My fingers are becoming challenged with this. The embrodiery says so great. Kathi, close your eyes, swing your hand around and let it plop on a piece of fabric. There you go girlfriend. HEEE HEEEE HEEE Who am I too talk, all of my aprons are a different fabric but same design!!!!!!!!!
Enjoying the moments. |

use grosgrain ribbon for the pockets, it is really easy to put them on. |

I have half of them put together, but all of them embroidered. I used tiny bias binding for the entire thing. Went around them just like I do for the big ones. No seams, no hemming either. I used the binding for the waistband and strings as well. It was only a little hard since it is so thin, but I just sew it a little slower. They are cute. |

I am planning to get the rest done today!! I have a few chores to do and then I will get them all done. These are really a lot of fun to make. I did not put my name on them either though. I cannot figure out a way to do it. Will I be done early? I forgot the day we are supposed to send them.
Usually, I am looking at how everyone else is already done, and I have not even started yet! Since I am off, I can finally keep up! |

....she yawns and stretches....
Mini aprons? Was I supposed to have started them already??
No, really I have my supplies, I have my ideas, I've cut out a sample and that's about all the farther I've gotten. Guess I better get off my tushie and get moving on this one! Actually, I've been working on a couple of knitting swaps and I've been researching sewing machines, so I've been procrastinating just in case I get a new machine.
