Gift Idea

One great thing to look forward to while expecting...other than baby of course....is a baby shower! My sweet friends threw one for me about a week ago and loaded me up with all of the necessary things I never knew I needed to prepare for Baby Girl...butt paste, rattles, blankets, pajamas, a boppy?? (which I love and is the only pillow that helps me finally sleep comfortably) I wanted to do something special for the hostesses and decided to make each of them an apron! These were so much fun to do and as I went along with each one I tried not to think about topping my last one...I ended up spending 30 minutes just trying to figure out how I wanted them to look.

These are super easy and would be great presents for the holidays for homemakers you know. Or if they're not homey..they can just hang them in their kitchen to look cute. All of these were made out of Mimi material (found at grandmother's house) and each takes about 1/2 a yard I guess..but not exactly sure. I measured them all on myself before cutting. This ended up being not such a good idea on the last apron since I'm a little over 7 months pregnant now and it ended up being huge, but one of the hostesses was pregnant too so it fit her perfectly!

Another group of my girlfriends are giving me a shower next week and I wish I could do this for them too...but there are 12 of them. I think I'm going to cook them something fun instead. They're all young, beautiful, single and buck wild....so maybe something with alcohol? I'll let yall know what I come up with.

My mom was the perfect model for my aprons! (they look a little wrinkly in the pics but I ironed them right after pictures)
