Ada's Adorable Aprons

Big Sewing Day

2009-05-07T20:38:00.002-05:00

I sewed almost all day long today. I did take a break to eat a bite and bake an angel food cake with cream cheese icing. The first half apron is all black and white. It's checks and dots. The second one is denim with red checks and dots. The first full apron is teal and green. The last apron is black with 2 shades of pink and line green with lots of circles and dots. You can probably tell that I like circles and dots. The half aprons are $15 + S/H and the full aprons are $30 + S/H.

Hello--I'm BACK

2009-04-14T16:46:00.002-05:00

I guess you could say that I took the winter off. Actually, it would be a mixture of having foot surgery and being lazy!! I had a nerve removed in the bottom of my foot, and since my sewing machine is upstairs--no climbing stairs or sewing for a while. I did work quite a bit on a new quilt that I had started. I am making it for my granddaughter. All the fabrics have dots in pastel colors. I'll show it to you sometime.
Cathy Cobblestone kept after me to "MAKE MORE APRONS". So, I got started last week and have been loving it. I really did miss sewing them. More pictures to come!!
