I just couldn't stop even after I had made aprons for each of my girls, and their boyfriends. I repurposed a quilt block, some clothing labels, and some of my Route 66 fabric stash. More pictures of the rest of the aprons on Flickr.
So even though I have a pile of quilts to quilt, I've been otherwise occupied. Then today I spent most of the day cooking, making tortellinis, bread, and cinnamon rolls. Tomorrow younger daughter is coming over so we can make candy, scone mix, and cookies. And so since I didn't ever do a giveaway for my 100th post, here it is! Leave me a comment by this Friday (12/11) and I'll draw a name and send you an apron, and some other goodies!

Inspiring! I have some jeans I need to use up too, great idea!
They look good - I LOVE the one with the repurposed quilt block, but they all turned out great. I can pick out Geoff's, and I think yours for longarming, but not sure about the others.

Well I certainly needs some of your goodies ... I miss the scones at the retreat. Cute apron ... I could use one of those too.
thanks.
Hey Hilda, you've been busy. I always need aprons cuz I am a messy eater, not because I cook, but you know that. This is the first time I've visited your blog, that in itself should make me the most eligible person to be gifted with an apron, but I know you will do the draw honestly. You will won't you?
cheers, Judy
This is the obligatory comment. :-)
What? no cage liners for animal cages from the jeans? they'd certainly be long-wearing! :-)
Darling apron Hilda - what a great idea for using up old jeans. Please enter me into your drawing; I'd love to have one of my very own. Also, congrats on 100+ posts.
Is this a new look to your blog? I don't remember seeing this pretty background before. I really like it. LindaPoo
Hilda, love your apron! You are so creative! Have fun with your daughter and your baking day! Oh, and stay warm!
What a great idea. All your aprons are great–this one is my favorite of the bunch.
Please enter me for a chance in your drawing.
Ps. Like Linda, I really like the new look to your blog. It's pretty and functional . . . kind of like your aprons ;-)
Hi,
I love your cute aprons. I would say my favorites are the half aprons, especially the pink and orange flowers. Great idea.
Wow Hilda, what a cute idea for an apron! And to think that I got rid of that box of old jeans.....
They just announced at work that they want all of us to begin wearing aprons next year. A blue jean apron is just what I need - they are my favorite thing to wear after all!
I'm sure that I deserve the apron, since I've known Hilda longest. ;-) But I shouldn't be greedy, since she's made me wonderful quilts. The aprons are great, Hilda, and congratulations on keeping your blog going! Rosie
