New Listings in GoofingOff Sewing: Cook It UP

Aprons are so versatile. Great to wear while cooking....obvious...but fun for the backyard barbecue or entertaining. Good for protection when welding or doing shop work.....and it's nice to have extra pockets when doing a yard sale. Here's a few recent additions to the shop.

McCall's 8231 Men and Women's Aprons COMPLETE

McCall's 5826 Men and Women's Aprons. Red Letter Transfers included COMPLETE The pattern also includes a pot holder pattern and an oven mitt pattern. I love the reference to the movie "Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice," the so popular movie of the 60's. It starred Natalie Wood, Robert Culp, Elliot Gould, and Dyan Cannon. It was about sex...my mom wouldn't let me see it. 

McCall's 2925 Misses Apron and Pinafore in size Small COMPLETE

D-Day Remembrance

I am taking the time out from my usual GoofingOff to remember those who fought during the D-Day landing in World War II. 

Thank you.
