When I went to see my aunt this past weekend she gave me a lot of material and lots of finished quilting squares. So I made an apron this moring out of some of them. Probably best that you can't see my work up real close. My Aunt makes lots of quilts and wall hangings,etc. But she also starts a lot of things then doesn't put them together. So I get lots of finished squares in different patterns. So I could make pot holders and pillows and so on. The hard work of piecing the squares is already done for me. Thankyou Aunt Glenda. She is 93 now. Anyway I posted a picture of me and my and my apron. Its not a real clear picture but thats a good thing.

Very cute. You and your aunt did a wonderful job. Thanks for sharing. I am so glad that aprons are making a come back.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

That is a really cute apron
Your Aunt and I must have quite a lot in common as I have quilt blocks sewn and not put together; 2 quilt tops to be excit
also crocheted squares for afagans.

I just added a picture of the Apron without me in it. I have a lot more quilt squares from My Aunt, so I will have to think up some other things to make.
Also started knitting what I hope will be a tube sock. Kind of making up the pattern as I go along. Odd time of year to feel like knitting, but these things just come over you and you have to go with it. Of course it is in the 40's today with 500 mile per hour winds. That might have something to do with it.
