Christmas Projects - 2013

This Christmas, I made a whole mess of aprons for gifts.

Here's the kid's collection:

I made four girl's aprons but they were all pink and purple just like those, and then the three boys "Monster Smocks."

The girls patterns came right out of my little head.  Maybe I'll have to write it up some day to share.  The boys "Monster Smock" pattern I found at JoAnn's a while ago.  The mouth is a pocket!!

So Cute, huh!! 

Next up is the men's collection - for three brother's in law.

(What a handsome model! work it, Work it!)  ;)

And the women's collection:

For three sister's in law... and one for me, of course.  

I loved them all but I kept the orange and blue one for me.  ;)

Yes, I made up that pattern too.  

It's actually a simple variation of the men's pattern that I bought years ago.

Here's some more of those adorable pot holders.

These two sets I made for my Mom and sister as part of their 12 gifts of Christmas set.

This is their 12 Gifts of Christmas!

I know that's 13 items but two of them I wrapped together.

I did 12 little packages all inside one big box.

It was a lot of fun!  I think I might do it again next year with some other fun goodies.

It was a Merry Christmas!
