I sent a few pics over to Tie One On of some of the aprons I love so much. I like using florals - they are abundant and appeal to my love of the random and asymmetrical. I have a nice closet full of aprons from a sewing frenzy last fall. I pull more and more of them and want to keep them, but I want them to find other loving kitchens, too. So I am determined to do an etsy site this Spring - which is right around the corner.

I have been home for two months now and I am so glad - so very content to have time to do all those things mentioned below - and more and more sewing. Working on patterns for Indygo Junction and making things for my daughter - my own Mad Men Joanie to sew for! I am also determined to get a dress form in here that is me-sized and sew for myself.

All right then! I have finished the latest pattern - tissue drawn, instructions written, samples made, drawings done... almost. Will be delivered this afternoon. Then on to the next project. I am honestly going to try to do not quite so many things right on top of each other next year. I am committing right here and now to only doing costumes for one director. One. That's it. I get so involved in the lives of the kids and I would rather give time to those relationships... on an ongoing basis. Not have to move on to another group. That's it: a decision made.

Feels freeing.

As soon as I find the camera I will post a picture of the sample I made to check the directions. For my daughter - she is always a most willing recipient of these aprons. And makes a lovely Apple Pie, no doubt assisted by the apron. This is my firm belief.
