Yarni Gras Fiesta Apron Swap

I started a babysitting job on Monday with a 3 year old little girl. What a difference one more child can make! My whole schedule has been rearranged and I need to find time to blog now.

I received the cutest apron from CathyJean when we entered Val from Yarni Gras Fiesta Apron Swap. I love the fabric and the pattern CathyJean used. She made the cutest little yo-yo's and added them to the top straps and then added some super big purple ric rac across the front of the apron. CathyJean also sent me a cute jalapeno salt and pepper shaker set and a yummy recipe for a layered Mexican dip.

Here is my Mallory modeling the apron that CathyJean sent.


Here is the apron that I made for Jeanie. I noticed that Jeanie lines most of her aprons so I made this apron reversible. I also added a strap to the waistband so Jeanie could stick a towel in it. I hope it works out! I also made her a hot pad and crocheted her a couple of dishcloths.


This was a fun swap Val! Thanks for asking me to join!!

Now I need to get the apron made that I promised my sister way back in the fall.
Sorry Cathy! I haven't forgot!!
