Apron Pattern request

Anyone have any suggestions for a pattern for a retro style apron? I might check out my LQS tomorrow, but I want to try making some for my sister-in-laws for Christmas. A free pattern would be really cool.

More Progress


I love this 3D Flying geese pattern! And the prints in the charm packs I used are so cute!. It's from the Lollipop line from Moda, I think they aren't actually out yet, but I got these on ebay. I want to find something to match and add one more border around the whole thing.

New 3D Pinwheel



My latest finished quilt. I will probably be listing it on etsy shortly. I've done pretty well on that site, with 11 sales since about April.

Darning Foot is here

So I got a darning foot. How do I free-motion quilt?

Waterfall Top

Here is another pattern I saw and had to modify to my liking. I really like how it turned out, and would like to try it again, maybe using just shades of 1 color or 2 colors.

Too many bug bites

That's about all the more my little guy can open his eyes right now. He got a lot of bug bites Wednesday night in out backyard. The mosquitoes have been terrible this year. I might have a 4 day weekend, depending on when I get him into the doctor's office.

New nephew and Quilt top


My sister-in-law had a little boy this morning. Everyone is doing well, he was 6 pounds, 11 ounces, and 4 days over due. He'll have lots of fun with my boys in just a few months.
And this is what I made with the pieces of that card trick that didn't quite work out. I didn't want to trim the larger triangles to make my miscalculated smaller triangles work for the card trick. Got it finished up over the weekend, and 2 nursing covers. I need to figure out which version works better, and then will list them on etsy, with all my other projects.
