Ok, just one more... promise

I'm really just dropping in to show you the new aprons for the shop. I'm so ready for spring and these bright aprons are just the ticket. This one will remind you of blue skies, gardens and sunshine....
This one is for all you fans of black and white. I found the greatest little toile the other day and had to make some of these up. If you can't wait for the OWOH give-away on Feb. 12, then you might want to snap this up now.And this one is just for fun. Run Jane run... buy this fun apron!

Tomorrow I start my second job, (I know you thought it began last week, I did too, but this week I'm on the schedule). I will be working almost 50 hours a week between the two so my blogging will certainly be affected. I will do what I can, and I will most certainly be checking up on you all, but something has to give and it will probably be in the area of comments and replies. I hate that, but I'll still have housework and family time to squeeze out after work and, well, priorities you know? The good news is it will only be until April 15. *sigh* 52 days and counting... I'm grateful for the work, what with Earl being laid off and all, but I sure will miss all that free time. I hope everyone has a wonderful week, I'll see you soon:>)

  3. I love that you are prioritizing and getting things in order...it will all work out and you'll find balance -- and when you make time for what you do with "free" time (!), make sure it's something that gives your passion release and relaxation!!! ♥

  10. Kathleen... I just love your aprons!! I understand how all your time is going to be taken up with the 2nd job but I really hope we get to see new aprons!!

    Do you do the embroidery yourself? It looked like the first one had some on it.

  11. I admire your positive attitude! Just tell yourself "And this too shall pass" and then Spring will be here before you know it! And think about all that extra time you'll have when your done with Tax Season and you'll appreciate it all the more!
    The aprons are just wonderful!
    Get your rest!

  12. Hi Kathy...your aprons are just adorable...I especially like the Jane and Dick one...I don't envy you having to work two jobs...My husband was out of work a few years ago and I did the two job thing....It's very tiring, so take care of yourself....Sue.

  14. Hi Kathy,

    As always your aprons are just super cute!

    I admire you for doing what you need to do for your family. Having two jobs and taking care of your family and yourself (don't forget yourself) will be tough. But April will be here before we know it.

    Take care,

    Manuela

  16. Good luck to you! Take your vitamins and eat your wheaties every morning(hee! hee!)

  17. They are absolutely precious! And I love your 'trademark' of making the ties long enough, to tie a bow in front. Mmmmmmm, is this idea trademarked?

    Best of luck with the work time. I agree with another reader, who suggested you take your vitamins. And get lots of rest too. To keep you healthy, while so busy. :-)

    And don't worry about commenting, during such a time!

  20. OMG Kathy these are gorgeous, but I must say I am partial to that Run Jane Run! I loved Dick and Jane. Never mind about the comments everyone seems to be slowing down on the blogs also. Good luck in your second job.

  27. Hi sweet friend! I hope that your week is going good and that you take some time to relax and do something nice for yourself, too.

    Kathy, you already know how much I love the things you make because I own THREE of your lovely creations. You have outdid yourself - AGAIN - and the aprons are just precious! I cannot wait to get the Apron-Ology magazine. Any idea where they will be sold?
