I found my new tiny aprons pattern....the one I showed ya on this thread somewhere..I think Carol Sue bought one too.
I'm going to try out a couple of those styles...spend the time playing with it and who knows what I'll end up with. I'd like to have the inspiration to at least make use of part of the pattern.
Can we see something posted as a pic? just a little peek??
Bonne, if you must torture us with waiting then at least show a little PART of a mini to us....like a pocket? The new girls would like it and I'd get a little "kick in the rear" to start mine. Pleeeeeese>>>???????

I posted this pic and also the pattern number on the Apron sewing etc. thread. If anyone is really wanting the pattern number I can find it for you. These are actually Christmas ornaments.... haven't used the pattern yet because we always just made our own patterns for the swaps.

Well, I finally found some fabric that I like for the minis so I guess it is time to mainline some caffeine and get to it. Bonne, I'm very impressed that you are all done! Not to be a lazy bum, but I think mine are going to be really simple this time, because the fabric is wicked cute. Maybe I'll go wild on the polka dots...

I want to cut my number in half. I can't do 32 of them....can I just send 16 and get the 14 back? Or do I need to ask another person to do the difference for me?

I'd be happy to split with Linda. 16 would be a much more manageable number for me.

Then you girls go for it, we have done some splits in the past.....can you just see us truly trying to do splits, I would be in the emergency room.....lol
Yes, Linda, I did get the pattern, just to see what they did. I might go simple on this one and have to play with them a bit later, time will fly by to fast before I get my butt in gear.....lol
Gotta go check out Bonne's for inspiration....

Oh My Gosh Bonne.. At first Glance I thought your Pin Up Girl was sitting on a Pickle!
jeez.. where's My mind gone off to!
ANYWAY!! We HAVE MAIL!!
Can you Believe it! BONNE is the first one to get her Mini's in Girls! & they are SOOOOoo Dang Cute! Al embelished with lace.. They look like a Dark Winter night! I Love em! There.. thats the only clue you get from me.. No more progress from me.. Mine are still sitting in all their many different stages of completeion.. no where near being finished of course.. But I will have you know.. That I have nearly finished putting all the christmas decorations away! everything except the tree.. I actually keep the Christmas stuff all in the walk-in Closet in My sewing room.. So it still has the appearance of a bulemic fabric job in there.. All i need to do now it drag that naked Christmas Tree out of the middle of the living Room & I'll be in good shape.. Butch Baby swears i'm just doing now to piss him off.. Yes.. of course.. thats it.. thats what I live for.. Just because i joked about it being art.. Now the man never takes anything i say seriously.. WHY on Earth would he believe me when I said i think i'll leave the freaking empty Christams tree up as a Statement of some sort.. Since it looks a Bit posh.. & blends.. Since we never really had anything to stick in that corner..?

lol ok that was great kathy, my husband tends to take some of my sarcastic remarks as real too.
ummmmm......so jess you say that your the late one. i may be able to beat you on that one this time cause i havent even started hahaha or for that matter look at fabric for them i am soooo not motivated at the moment. at this rate i am gonna have to bribe myself into starting them and finishing them.
oh wait mine are really fancey kathie!! they are (ready for this one) invisable they have lace and buttons and pockets and everything your little heart desires.

Kathie, you should just leave that tree up to bug that ole Butchie babe, yes, your new form of art. Now remember what I told you about making a bahhh humbug tree. You trim off the branches off your tree leaving about and inch on each branch to the main trunk. Then you let it sit till next year. Bring it out, wrap lights around it, hang bulbs on those little stubs and some tinsel and you have a bah humbug tree. See everything is ususeable. Blame this on my brother, yes, I have bah humbug trees, and have saved some and had friends see mine and take off with one of my "trees" .....lol. They are fun. So just tell Butchie it will be a bah humbug tree.....lmbo.......
