tie one on

oh, the pies look good!~

Okay you all, thank you so much! The Pie Makin' Apron gallery is up and the aprons look soooooo good as do the outstanding pie recipes! This photo here from Jessica sums up my feelings exactly for the project, it just makes me so happy and puts a huge smile on my face when I put these apron galleries together. Please take your time checking out the aprons and add comments. Everyone loves to get feedback on their creations. And try some pie recipes too!

The new theme is set for September 1st (the post below) and the random winner of the book giveaway is #12, which is Marca! Congrats!! (Marca please send me your address when you can.)

Please don't hesitate to e-mail me if I forgot links, got names wrong, or forgot an apron, okay?!

new tie one on theme-plaid!

Oh, we are mad about plaid! Seriously, plaid is so flippin' popular right now and I love it to bits—it seems like the perfect choice for the next theme, which will be for the September 1st gallery. I have always associated plaid with Fall, so there you go. Seems weird to be thinking about it in the heat of July, but I know it's not all that far away.

So, the theme is Plaid, any plaid fabric you want to make into an apron. Or try just a plaid pocket, or a sash—it's up to you. I love homespuns like this one here from Cia's Palette, but please use whatever you like. Have fun!! You have 2 months. I need the jpegs e-mailed to me by September 1st.

There will be a book giveaway, chosen from the people who play along, just like for the last two themes. I will let you know what book it is soon.

The July Pie Makin' Apron gallery is coming along—I will need a few more days to finish it, in between the pyrotechnics happening around here over the holiday weekend. I promise I won't start any fires. You all are gonna freak out when you see all the pie recipes.
