red or white for Father's Day!
Comments (20)White here....My Father passed away in 1954 after suffering from cancer...I was just 16 at the time...Often wished he could have been here for all the kids and grands....He would have been in his glory...Had he lived, today he would be 109....

Comments (0)I'd love to grow flowers to cut for a few bouquets for friends and family for Valentine's and later for Mother's Day. Any suggestions as to what I could grow that would be ready that early in the year? (I'm in zone 9b Santa Cruz CA so coastal and not expecting frost overwinter) I much prefer cottage garden whimsy/wildflower look to the traditional valentines red rose. Ready to plant this Fall and I have a greenhouse. Would love to hear your thoughts!...See MoreMother’s Day Bouquet

Comments (22)Way back when I was in home ec class in high school. You know the dark ages! Lol We made the simplest cute and useful aprons. I hate losing it in the flood. I will have to make another one. It was basically 2 large rectangles edged on all edges. And a long strip of the fabric deep enough for a pocket. That strip was the same width as the rectangle and was sewn on the front rectangle across the bottom, leaving the top open, like a giant pocket. Then stitch 2 lines from top of pocket to the bottom spaced apart from each other evenly to turn the giant pocket into 3 equally sized pockets. Then stitch the 2 rectangles right side together at the top edges only about 2 inches each. That creates a boat neckline so that you can slip it over your head. Now you have an apron with a boat neckline and a row of 3 pockets along the front bottom. All you need now is a tie. Sew a ribbon or a piece of the fabric, with the edges sewn, to each edge of the front rectangle at waist height. Done. It literally takes less time to make it than it did for me to type this. This style is called a cobbler apron. Similar to this one....See Moremorz8 - Washington Coast
