Elizabeth, Bev would be the right person to answer you question. I only have one size, and I am not sure what the size is.

Naomi: Love, love that bag! Great work!

Bonne: Oh, that skirt is the best. Your skirts are such a dream. Everyone must love seeing you around town with all of your cool fashions.

I have been SOOOOOO sick for this week. I took two days off and then had to go back because our play is next week and the kids need practice time (they are doing great though), but I am a little tired. Have been working on the churn dash quilt a little today and did a little cutting for my slipcovers, but not much else. I think I am on the mend though. Hope you all have a great weekend.

I have a cold now. My oldest son was so generous and had to share. The students in his college class are also sick.

It seems like everyone either has been sick or is sick. Surely, some people at work will get it and blame me for it! :) You just can't stay home for the entirety of it.

Elizabeth, I have an apron my sister made for me that I "think" is the farmgirl
pattern, can't say for sure, but it measures 29" across the width before the ties are sewn on. That's an average size apron (I'm sz 10-12)

I did yard cleanup and garage cleanup....finished the first quilt and started another. Aprons??? Oh how I wish I had time....not now...quilting fever has ahold of me right now. Sounds like everyone has been down and out with some sort of ailment....hope ya'll feel better!

Yes, Bev, the beauty of quilts is that you can give a quilt to anyone!! One size fits all!
And you can't have too many around the house either; plus uses up vast quantities of fabric giving you more reasons to restock. ;)

I am glad that you replied. I caught a cold from my son. I am not visiting my mom until later this week until I feel better.

Hey Sharon, Hope you are feeling better soon..I just got over the crud last week... Your aprons look great!

Bev, You are in the "white tornado" mode! Glad you are getting so much done and that you are enjoying the quilting..

Hope everyone is enjoying some nice weather this week...we had 4 inches of snow over the weekend and now it's back in the 60's. Spring is right around the corner. I love daylight savings time...It was after 7 last night before it was dark.

Talk to y'all later, Steph

I am actually feeling better in regards to the cold. I didn't see my mom this week, because of the cold. I guess if I wore one of those masks I could go. I am just trying to get a lot of rest.

I am glad that you like the aprons. I did about 3 more this week. I wished that I could do more. It is sew cough cough, sew cough cough, so I am better off not sewing.

I just got in from digging out in the garden~yanking out what I don't want mostly, b/4 it gets a foothold. I plan to plant my peas this weekend being that St. Pat's Day is the traditional planting date~or so I've heard. ;) Time to round up some manure too. Bev, that goat manure should be awesome!

I am finally feeling better too! My little drama club has had me at school until 9 pm all week. After this weekend, that is done though. While I was sick, I made that quilt top with the Kaffe Fasset fabrics. It's on my blog, but the total color scheme doesn't come through as deep as the colors are. Let me know what you think!

Anyone sewing this weekend? I cut out another patchy skirt~Sissyquilts had
sent me some fat quarters from her shop, so I decided to show them all off at once. ;)

Bonnie, great job on the skirt. I did some sewing last Friday and Saturday but nothing today. I went to see my mom today. I have been sewing up aprons that I cut out a long time ago. My inventory on the website is very low, so I am trying to build them up again.
