Wacky Pac Quilters

Choose a fat quarter, squares or rectangle scraps, one 36"X 6" and two 24"X6" strips of coordinating fabrics. Before ruffling one of the 36"X6" fabrics, turn under one length of it for a hem. Then stitch it to the bottom of the fat quarter. Make a pocket from scraps to stitch onto the fat quarter. At this point turn under the rest of the fat quarter for a smooth finish. Finally sew two 24" X 6" length strips together, press in half and attach as the tie band. More prefer long ties on their aprons. This apron is winging its way to a special friend of mine, so shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! This one, I haven't been able to part with, so far. I did a box pleat on the bottom. I love the look of it.

The Azalea Quilt Show in Tyler, Texas was really great this year. Five of the "Wackies" went and had a great time, as usual. A couple of us took our scissors over and had them sharpened by "The Scissor Guy"........ Hayward Erwin from Riverside, TX. We perused the area, enjoyed the various displays and demos, picked up the scissors then went to lunch. After lunch, it was onto "The Nimble Thimble." Katy, the owner, had a great discount for the quilt show and of course, we took full advantage.
