APRONS, APRONS, APRONS. This is a picture of some of my favorite people -- wearing one of my favorite things. My sister Ronda, my friend Rhonda, and my dear friend Phyllis. We were taking part in a Schmetz Sewing Machine needle focus group. And I shared a "sewing story" where the aprons came into play. Gingham aprons were the first thing I started collecting...
This year, Rhonda will be coming to my house for Thanksgiving -- and then I'M PUTTING HER TO WORK. She will help me hang the Art of Homemaking exhibit at the Bettendorf Library.
Gingham aprons were the first thing I started collecting...
 |
| Two weeks ago, we had a "sewing day"at the Library -- and I quickly made a sign... |
 |
| And I just happened to have this beautiful piece of embroidery -- "Where Ever You May Roam,There Is No Place Like Home", |
|
 |
| LP recently bought a NEW Featherweight -- so she brought all the supplies we needed to REFRESH OUR CARRYING CASE. |
 |
| My #3 Featherweight, Sister Sally Donovan, was overdue for a Spa Day... |
 |
| Sandy was working on some Christmas blocks. |
 |
| I brought a HUGE ASSORTMENT of aprons -- thinking everybody could pick out five or six... |
 |
| But, as it happened -- since the showcases were empty -- I decided to iron a few aprons and display them as kind of a "tease" for the upcoming Exhibit. |
 |
| LP chose a Christmas Apron theme for her display case. |
 |
| Sandy decided to hang an assortment of Gingham Aprons with Chicken Scratch embroidery. |
 |
| Before we left the library -- we had filled four display cases with some pretty spectacular aprons!! |
 |
| Chris (from the library) opened one of the main cases so I could display my Featherweight... |
.
THIS EXHIBIT IS GONNA be SPECTACULAR....
