Cathy's Christmas Count Down



           Live, Love and Laugh is her motto but crafting is her passion! My good buddy Cathy from the blog of the same name is hosting a Christmas Craft Count down and  your invited to join in . You can read all about it and learn how you can get in on the monthly giveaways too over on her blog. But my part is sharing my project of the month right here. So, for September, which is next week, I'm working on Mommy and Daughter aprons sewn in Christmas fabrics, rick rack and lace!  These will be gifts but I hope to make extras for my new Etsy shop that I'm planning on opening next month too!  It may seem early to some, but to some, it's never early enough to get those Christmas gifts made and tucked away! So, come peek at Cathy's blog and get inspired!

  2. I'm already making gifts. I've got a mental list of things to knit and sew. I think that for the most part, this will be a homemade Christmas.

  4. I have been getting a lot of Christmas stuff from yard sales lately so I am right there with you! Since I am no longer working I am hoping that this year I will be able to do everything that I want to do. I cannot believe that tomorrow is the last day of August! I LOVE FALL!!!!

  7. Way to go on those aprons Sue!
    And I'm with you on starting early on Christmas presents!
    Congratulations on your Etsy shop! I didn't do so well on Etsy and find Ebay easier. I wish Etsy configured the shipping calculator like Ebay so you don't have to guess shipping.
    HOpe it goes great for you... loved your picture of the apron on facebook!

  8. This is my favorite apron pattern right now. I made a few changes so that the neck piece was one piece all the way around rather than 2 pieces that tie in the back, though. This pattern works with so may fabrics!! Have fun!
