This is the "one" that I've completed the expert level. I love all my aprons and even have another one in progress. Happy Sewing ladies!

Well, Kimberly Ann looks like we will both be working on the same level. I've made a lot of aprons but never designed my own. Can't wait to see what everyone else does.

Ok, so I want to play, but I just submitted all three levels of Aprons! I'll go ahead and submit the others that I have the stuff for and will answer any questions that I can.

Cool, I've never made my own apron. I'm going to need lots of help ladies. I can sew quilts and pillows and stuff like that, but whenever it comes to clothes things. Yikes! I go running the other way. The waste band and tie are what get be scared. How do you do it and it comes out right?

Marjean, if you can make quilts and pillows, an apron will be a piece of cake!

I want to join in too - pretty please. I have started to clean up "my" room (holiday love-mess) and should be ready to start something new Monday-ish :-) This should be a lot of fun to do as a sort of group - Thanks Rene'

OK, so I finished my design apron for the expert badge and well, it is really cute but it doesn't fit. I know aprons aren't really fitted but this one was sort of suppose to be. Now, here is my question should I start from scratch or take this one apart and try again. I really love the skirt part but the bib part is not right. Suggestions please!!!!

I wonder if you only hooked the "bodice" part in the front rather than going so far around on the waist part. kind of more of heart shape?? I think that when it wraps around it would kind of gap when it goes so far around.
I haven't started working on a badge but would like to give it a try too.

You are right it does kinda gap when it wraps around. I think It would fit good if I had a bit more up front if you know what I mean. LOL I have decided to keep this one as is and make changes on the 2nd one. Because for this badge you must make two. So suggestions would be appreciated. I am keeping the skirt part I love that part. I hope to get started on it on the weekend. I am trying to finish some bedroom decorations for my DD before she goes back to college.
Cindy Lou, I love your quote. I haven't heard that one in years.

Love the colors/fabrics you chose for your apron. Looking at the picture the bodice looks short in comparison to the skirt (Very cute). Could that also be part of the fitting problem? Just a suggestion.

Rene' - would you be so kind as to direct me to the right spot for submitting badge info. I seem to be at a loss to find it...probably right under my nose. Thank you for your help!
