Wahooo, found my Christmas fabrics in with the holiday stuff I'm trying to get put away. Knew I had some scraps and probably fat quarters to use for them. That was one baby step for me! Should be enough for 32 mini aprons, though I'll have to have one from each fabric to keep for myself. Am I on a roll or what? Don't answer that if you know me.... |

LOL Does finding the fabric and thinking about it count as finishing? LOL...I will cut them out and work on them tonight. They sound more attractive right now then embroidery! LOL

Well the only patterns I have are from MaryJane's books and magazines- so I decided to try to do the No-Frills Frilly Apron. Try is the word here. I might end up going back and doing a basic one if this one throws too many road blocks in my path!

The "secret" to doing mini-aprons is you have to set up a production line. You don't do them one at a time, you separate them into their parts and put the parts on as a production line. Don't fret on getting them to look exactly alike and perfect. That will just make you crazy. Besides, Diana was done first!! Holy cow that was just after we started the signup !
