Well, that was a delightful surprise! I didn't expect so many ladies would join the sewing bee. We'll have a good time and hopefully all come out the other end with at least one apron. Next Monday I'll post details of the sewing bee as well as a few free patterns that you can download. They'll be patterns for an ordinary plain apron - the simplest one to cut and sew, a harvest apron, cross-back apron, shop/market apron, half apron, peg apron and a child's apron. You'll need about one metre of fabric for the main part of the apron and 25 cm of contrasting fabric. If you're a new sewer, it might be wise to buy cotton tape too so you don't have to make the waist and neck ties.
THE LIST IS CLOSED NOW. Even if you're not on the list, you'll still be able to see everything that goes on in the sewing bee. So join in and sew your apron with us.

I can't do a Maggie rabbit sewing bee because I'm using Alicia Paulson's pattern, which I bought a couple of years ago, and it's covered by copyright. I can't share the pattern with you. I'll have to think about a rabbit bee, if we do one, I'll have to find a suitable new pattern.
