A Vintage Apron Christmas

What do you mean by "vintage apron"? Is this something I could make (as I don't have any)?

Hello, Purplemorgan

Yes, you can make the apron or it can be a vintage apron, it is your choice. I will edit the swap. I realized that not everyone will have a vintage apron and I also know that there are many who have tremendous sewing talents. Thanks for your question.

I sent my box out to Raesha today! Hope you like it!

Hi, everyone! The deadline to mail your packages is near, December 8th. Mary Jane has the 1st prize in mailing! I can't wait to see all the great swaps in the gallery slideshow! So remember to post a picture and rate your partner (giving an appropriate time for shipping). Should there be a problem in mailing, receiving,etc. please contact your partner and me. We have a great bunch of swappers!

Holy cow! Mary Jane absolutely spoiled me and sent me a beautiful package!!! I'll be posting pictures as soon as I have enough light to take them:) Mary Jane - thank you so much - everything was absolutely perfect and it was all so beautifully and lovingly wrapped:) I can't wait to try to recipe - and I have a nice little collection of copper cookie cutters that I am excited to add the tree cookie cutter to:) The apron is fantastic!! I had used some of that SAME fabric to make a bunch of pillowcases for gifts:):) It fits perfect and I can't wait to break it in!

Happy Holidays and Baking! When I mailed my package by parcel post the very informative mail person said, "This may not make it there by Christmas." So I said "What you mean is the regular 2-9 day standard changes in December." He just looked at me! Poor guy! So our packages may take longer than usual to arrive! Be patient. Enjoy the holidays! May each one of you be very blessed!

RAESHA!!!! WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!!!!!!!! Talk about being spoiled!!!! Oh my goodness!!! It's BEAUTIFUL! While I don't celebrate Christmas, the poinsettias are so lovely! They are my birth month flower, and since I have cats I can't have the real thing, so the apron is just PERFECT! It even ties! Can't wait to try the recipes! And everything was wrapped up so nicely! It was such a fun and joyful moment to open up such a lovingly created and wrapped package!!! THANK YOU!!!! You more than made my day!

Trish, your package was put together with such TLC! Loved the apron, etc, etc, etc!!! And such lovely sprinkles! Thank you!!!!!! Hope the holidays are very special for you!

Bombshell-o-matic, My husband just got home and I opened your box to find a beautiful apron. It reminds me so much of my two great aunts. I miss them so much and they passed away in the late '70's. Thank you for the memories. I also love the potholders. My first sewing project was a gingham apron with cross stitch. I still have it! I absolutely love the cookie recipe book and an the recipe cards. I have got to hit the dollar store more often, they are great! I love the cookie cutters, my favorite cookie to make is the sugar cookie cutouts and somehow I've lost my cookie cutters. I think one of the kids "borrowed" them , so now I have some more! The whisk and cookie turner with the gingerbread handle is very adorable and I will think of how kind you are when I make cookies. I will enjoy the tea when I am at work, a great stress relief! Overall, you have sent me a fantastic swap. Thank you so much. I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas. Smiles and many thanks, Mary Jane

Happy Holidays! It looks like everyone has sent their packages, thank you for being such a fantastic group. We all are enjoying memories and ignoring the calories! Right, girls! I made cookies yesterday and wore my apron.
