There is so much to blog about :)

As all of you know I was busy getting my Halloween aprons finished up for the Spooks, Rattles, Pots, and Pans swap ;) I got them completed and they are now at the new owners homes.. so without further a do here they are ;)

I really like how fast and easy this full apron pattern goes together. It is fully lined and looks so classy when its completed :)

LOL I had to show all three matching aprons that I made.. I know this isn't a very good photo. But I don't own a clothes line to hang them on ......so I did the best I could at taking all three together :) If you look really hard you can see three orange buttons. Each button is attached to one pocket on each apron.

Here is one potholder made from the scraps ;)

Here is another potholder made from scraps. Now let me tell you these were a tad difficult for me. The instructions called for two layers of that heat resistant stuff and one layer of batting. It made the layers so d a r n (LOL not spaced it looked like a curse word) thick the walking foot didn't even want to walk around it. So they are not my best item I have every made.. but from now on I am going to use two layers of the heat stuff and no layers of batting. ;)
There is other fun stuff to blog about... but I'll wait until tomorrow.

The aprons are darling and the potholders have got to be the cutest! What a fun thing to do with the left over scraps. I will have to remember
that when I make my Christmas aprons.

Let me tell you - this apron is awesome - even better in person than in the pictures she posted! I love love love mine! And the potholder, too! I will be posting pics soon, since I "THINK" I got the problem I'd been having with my 'puter fixed (I am NOT saying it out loud because I might jinx things!) but I'm hoping after a new $100 modem and a new $60 power strip that everything stays working now! Again...the apron is sooooo wayyyyy cool! Really well made and I totally LOVE the fabric - those long legs are a hoot or maybe a whoot! Thanks, APP - you are such a special lady :-)
Hugs,
