I would love an authentic Farmgirl apron! I do child care and along with housework, my clothes are getting stained/bleached/messy. I do not sew (visually handicapped to some extent~can't thread a needle without a tantrum! lol), but might be able to trade something(s).
Not sure how much a homemade apron costs...
I have size 12 boys cowboy boots in great condition (7 yr old's), along with size 12 blue rubber rain boots. That right there is a $35 value, being used of course...
I make greeting cards, $2.50 each. Could trade for apron.
Might possibly consider trading this kitten, who insists on sitting on my shoulders while I type...
Anyone wanna trade?

Leslie, what kind of apron are you looking for? Full apron or half apron? Size?

I have a few simple half aprons sitting here. I would be happy to send you one. Or let me know what you are looking for, and I could make you one from my stash of fabric?

Hi Terri! If you go to the home page (click Home at the top of this page) and scroll down to the bottom, the girls are all wearing the same type of apron~~I love those! If I had to chose my model, it'd be the girl on the far right...lol. I like that style because it could be folded down to a half apron in a flash. I tend to get bleach stains (yes I use bleach on occasion) and water/food splashed on me at the belly button level. I even dropped a blue dry erase pen while wearing a white sweat jacket, and guess where it left a mark? I have many t-shirts with stains and this has got to stop! LOL

Would you want to trade for anything? Or I could pay outright?

We drive thru Biggs on our way to Roseville. We try to avoid I-5 and
LOVE the scenic route of 99!

I wish I could help out. I tried that apron and couldn't get the knack for it. Hope you find someone to help you out, Leslie. :)

I was going to say.....I can buy the pattern (I have been wanting too anyway.....it gives me an excuse).

I would do it for free, as part of stash reduction........but thats cool if you want to buy one.

OH THANK YOU DAWN!! Thank you for the apron! I love it! I have to wrap it around twice, but that's good~~it'll protect all of me! I was bleaching the sink after washing the kitty the other day, and got a bleach mark on my navy blue sweatshirt...on the BACK of the sweatshirt! How'd I manage that?
But no more! Now I have a real farmgirl apron! I'll be sending a California package to ya on Monday! {hugs}

Hi, Leslie!
If you would like another apron or 2 let me know and give some idea as to the color and size. Would be willing to make it and send it to you.
Aprons are wonderful to have and having only 1 or 2 is never enough. God Bless and let me know.
