I am definitely in the Christmas spirit now, which is a good thing, because I'm making a lot of my presents, and I was just terribly unmotivated for awhile. I haven't got my tree up, but that should happen pretty soon.
I can't show one of the things I made, because it is a gift and I don't want to spoil anyone's Christmas, but I finished this apron using some of the Christmas fabric I bought, and I think it is adorable. The pattern is this one that I got at Hobby Lobby in a 99 cents sale. Yay! It's very simple to make (especially since I omitted the piping that is called for). The ties are made from double-fold bias tape.Not sure whether I will keep this or use it in a gift exchange. I think I have enough fabric to make another one, but would have to buy more bias tape.
I'm looking forward to trying out some of the other apron patterns, too.

Hi. I just found your blog, but you sound like you're a small farmer...do it yourself kinda gal so I added your blog to my roll call. i'd love to hear more how you manage to be a goat herder and an etsy shop creator. I'm trying to free myself from the usual 9- 5 job and be a small farmer some day.
