I thought I would show these for no good reason. Tasha made me the long one, Then I embroidered the whole thing. The other Half Apron, I made. TA DA. I say that because my sewing skills are on the low end of the sewing scale. I thought hanging the long one from the ceiling fan was rather creative.

Very nice, Nancy Jo. I found a neat Apron pattern at the thrift so I'm going to make it. I made an apron when I went to MJs farm a few years ago. MB

Very nice.....so peaceful. I looked at the list of people who visit your blog, and have you noticed that there are visits from literally all over the world? Even Sudan? Whoa!

And also, how does the apron look if the fan is on? Just kidding. Another version of curtains blowing in the window, but it might mean the end of the apron. I have a warped thought process sometimes.

Hi Nancy,
I always love visiting your blog. Although, I am envious of the great stuff you find at your thrift shops. Pickins here are slim and there is seldom anything good. But of course, I keep going.
The aprons are beautiful. It doesn't matter of you don't sew well when you can embroider so beautifully.

Yes, it is so wonderful that you embroider so well, each one gets a gift and that is just one of yours (and we all know what another one is...thrifting!).

Find your joy and live it. http://cheneybaglady.blogspot.com/http://www.kpaints.etsy.com http://www.thevintagebaglady.etsy.com FG #377

How you get so much done and have such a beautiful clean home too is beyond me...write a book please and I'll buy it and read it! You are a whiz if there ever was one! I think you should win the International Homemaker of the Year Award....if there was one. You go girlfriend!

beautiful aprons, Nancy JO! I just love looking at them :) Your secret garden looks like it has lots of potential and a nice quiet place to sit and think.
Thanks for sharing!
