Linda,,, couldn't find a link for info on the pattern,,, but it looks similar to the one in the Simplicity mini apron pattern... I think you could do a little 'Linda magic and tweaking' and make these!

Ok Linda,,, I couldn't resist,,,, so here is my version of the soda bottle apron......
I had to futzz with the pattern because I decided to double the fabric so the back is the same as the front minus the embelishments.
I made a yoyo and used it as the pocket...
I tried it on a wine bottle,,, cute..
bottle of lemonade,, even cuter!

I have tags that I had made up (I can't remember where) that I'm going to attach to the back of each apron.

Connie,,, you are not 'butting in''' you are our 'support team;,,
Beth, I agree,,, Christmas ones would be fun and look cute on a tree...
Linda,,, nope,,, mine are 1/2 aprons...
Debbie,, I had signed my name on a small strip of fabric and sewed them in on the backside of the waistband,,, then when I made the 2nd batch of aprons,,, go figure, I forgot to sew in the label so I just signed my name on the backside of the apron,,,
but I did make little tuck-in's to go into the pockets.... So it pretty much is up to you how you want to do it.
Ok,,, all of mine are packaged up,,, just need to hit the store & purchase my return padded envelope, tuck it in w/postage and off to the Post I go... hopefully by Wednesday,,, as I am leaving to drive back down south to take care of my mom again.

Mine are done and packed up ready to go but the 10+ inches of SNOW is not allowing me to go any where.
