Elizabeth! Can you hear me screammmmmming! I LOVE your darling cowgirl apron! What a great job you did! You clever girl. Love everything cowgirl! Thanks for the lead on the fabric also. I have bought some of the cowgirl fabric before but my lead went dry! I am going to make new curtains for my little 1957 Jewel vintage trailer. I need 16 yards! You can see my trailer if you check out this website! I am sister #595 if you look under "cowgirl caravan".
Thanks Bunches!

Maryjane, I JUST LOVE your darling trailer! And I'm so sad that I looked at that website - it looks like sooooo much fun, and I have this dream of having my own vintage teardrop...it must be the gypsy in me...but I just couldn't join in the fun right now...too many other pressing priorities :-( But for future reference, I'll have to be sure my next vehicle has towing capacity :-) Do you have to fish to be in the group? I'd love the caravanning aspect, but am not such a good fisher person. Please show pics after you get your curtains done. Thanks! Judy

Judy! I will email you some pics now before I went to Cowgirl College in Tombstone a couple months ago. No, you do not have to flyfish but join in the fun of the sisterhood! We are going to the Kern River in September! We have lots of sisters in WA and ID! katmom-Grace from MaryJane's Farm is moving to WA in a couple months! You will have to meet up with her for MJ's Farm & SOTF!
I just LOVE Elizabeth's DARLING apron! katmom made me one for Sisters on the Fly!
Hugs,
Maryjane Lee
Elizabeth, send me your email if you want the pics ! |

Ok.. THAT nearly got too much attention here at work..
What with my Hooting & Hollering.. & Maryjane lee's Screaming..!!
The Cow ruffles was just way too much fun!!!
I LOVE THIS APRON!!
What a hoot!
This is what i love most about doing the Aprons though i think is picking the combinations that i am going to use together!!
What a great choice!.. You nailed it!

Hi, Maryjane, I have emailed with Katmom and will definitely meet her when she gets up here. I moved here from San Diego in Oct. 2004, so we already have lots in common, besides MJF, of course!
I'll look more at the SOTF website...and then I'll keep my eyes out for my little teardrop...how fun! TTYL, Judy

Wow, Elizabeth, that apron is just the BEST!!!!!! I can't wait for my fabric to arrive....Oh darn....we leave to go to the beach for a big extended family vacation on Saturday....with my luck the fabric will arrive Friday and haunt me the whole week. Oh well, I am going to make an apron...but it might not be for a while. Can't wait to see what the rest of you all come up with!!
Keep Smiling.....Bev

What a great job you did! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!!!!!!! All the little bits of fun are just adorable. It's inspired me to go to the big city and go back to the fabric warehouse I saw the same fabric and get some for myself and start sewing up one of MJ's apron patterns with it. Your's is just so much fun. Bet you get a lot of compliments on it. You certainly did here! Keep up the great work.

I was just in a quilt shop today and found some great cowgirl fabrics by Moda. I did an Internet search when I got home and found the "Queen of the Ranch" line on several online store sites. Some had more of them than others. I like the Victorian Cowgirl Stripe in the 'Natural' color the best. It looked the most old fashioned to me.
Here is one place that had them:
http://www.sweetpeasandangels.com/catalog.php?category=36
The quilt store had the stripe in a blue on the bolt and it was very pretty. They also had 6" squares cut and in packets of all of the fabrics in the line. This is where I saw the 'Natural' colored stripe, but the store did not have it on the bolt.
I'd like some curtains out it for my kitchen, for that "Sarah, Plain and Tall" look I love. That is the Hallmark movie, part of a series, with Glenn Close. It is eye candy for the lover of primitive/Victorian.

Wow $7 a yard is the best price i have seen online. I will probably be ordering some more Buckerette in different colors too, and did you see the page of bandanas. Those would make cute contrasting trim too. I picked up Cottonwood bandana in pink only last outing.
