My participation in the Flirty Apron Swap for this year has ended with the completion of the latest theme, Frosted Flurries. For this swap you had to create a special Christmas apron that has a snowflake somewhere on it. In addition, you had to include tuck-ins, a gift for each letter needed to spell a word from the season.
I received this apron swap package from Paula. Her word was snow:
S - snowflake cup cozy
N -notecards
O - owl ornament
W - warm scarf.
Paula also included a few other goodies in her package. Thank you Paula for a marvelous swap package.
I made up a swap package for Alli. My word was hope:
H- hot pad
O- oven mitt
P- patterns
E- embroidered towels
I made a reversible apron with the Emmeline pattern. It was my first time using this pattern. I modified the pattern a bit by adding a pocket to both sides and sewed snowflakes on the pocket of one side. My partner likes woodsy-themed Christmas type decor like pine cones, trees, etc so I used two different pine cone fabrics that I actually had in my stash.

Oh Madelyn, the apron you made is gorgeous!!!! I love the fabrics you chose. One of these days I'll buy that pattern and try it.
What a spectacular apron you made and as always your tuck ins are equally amazing! You are so talented! You really spoiled your partner :)
You're very welcome! The funny thing is that Alli and I are friends - we actually work together - so I got to see the wonderful package that you sent to her first hand. Funny that I sent to you and you sent to her!
