I can't sew to save my life. Possibly hand sew, but that's only because I would have more control. Machines and I are not compatible, BFF's, or occasional lunch mates. For all intents and purposes, we barely tolerate each other... but I managed to put together the 2 aprons. Cussing, sighs, and grunts accompanied the process of course. I'm just thrilled you can't see any major blemishes.. and if you can - keep it to yourselves. ;-)
- Teenager wanted a basic with front pocket and trim -
- I decided to get a bit fancier and do two fabrics -
- Twall pocket -
Little Bear is mending our gate (found loose nails that need to be hammered in), Teenager is reading, and after sewing and putting up laundry, i'm ready for a nap. Yeah, i'm a dreamer.
So again, Lisa over at The Tardy Homemaker posed a question that made me think of change.
Bear and I have made some simple changes over time that we feel pretty good about. Basic stuff such as cloth bags for groceries, riding Bike to work, recycling, buying only organic, organic fair trade body products, etc.. but there is so many more possibilities of course.
New thoughts:
Clothes line for times of good weather
A push / blade mower (no fuel but elbow grease)
Diva Cup (i'm SO ready for one!)
Hand washing dishes (I do a lot of this already - but make it permanent)
No more papertowels! ( I stopped buying paper plates a few years ago, why not the towels)
Walking and riding the bikes more for transportation
So many different things we can do to change. So many thoughts running through my head!
Comment some more ideas for me to consider. I would love it!
Time for some tea and a good day dream about that nap.

2 hoots and hollers:
Awe, thanks for mentioning me again. Those are some great changes that you have made and plan to make in the future.
I think the aprons look great. I've neven sewn one myself. They intimidate me for some reason. I will eventually get brave enough to do on!
Oops that should have been *one* not *on*!
