How are you ladies doing on your clothespin aprons? I was just wondering if anyone would like to share without giving away to much of the surprise.

What patterns are you using?

What fabric/notions are you using and where did you get them?

What are you making for your tuck item? Or what are some good Tuck items?

I must say I am still very excited about this.

I raided my thrift store for vintage fabrics before we got our partners and plan on going again Tuesday.

I am still debating on a pattern or a combination of 2 or 3. I really like a half apron design and may use portions of it for a full apron.

I am still debating on a tuck item. I do have a few ideas but am worried it wouldn't be a big enough Tuck. Maybe I should make 2 or a couple of things???

Ok ladies come on fess up. Have you started your aprons??

I decided on the pattern and am super excited but my trip to the thrift store got cancelled so I could chase a runaway horse. Well my excercise for the week is done I finally caught him and had to walk 2.5 miles to get him back to the barn.

What kinds of things have people put in as the tuck items?? I am still confused on that.
