165 Apronistas:
I love the Mei Tai Baby Carrier Sewing Pattern. The apron is adorable too.
I have been waiting for this pattern to come out. I love it, it is my favorite.
I have to say that my favorite is the apron pattern followed by the reading pillow!
I love love love the color combinations on the reading pillow.
it's a difficult choice for me cause i like so many things! i like the mei tai, the apron, and the messenger bag. but i guess my most favorite one is the apron cause it's different from most aprons i've seen, it gives more cover so it's more useful (although i wouldn't want to get anything on it!) and it looks good.
I think this is the most perfect apron pattern I've seen, so I will ask for that one, should I be so fortunate as to win. It is just so lovely, and I think will be flattering on women of many sizes.

It's a toss-up between the apron and the reading pillow. But how can one pick when all of it is so cute? Thanks for such a fun giveaway!
I've never sewn an apron yet, but this pattern could inspire me to do so! it's my fave.
I love the apron but the Reading Pillow Sewing Pattern is great, too, so that's my favorite
I like the reading pillow, but I think I like the apron the best.
thia apron is the best... excited to see a pattern! I like the reading pillow too... I could use one of those
I could use all of those patterns! I like the flair of the apron the best, but the gnome messenger bag is a close second :)
I've been drooling over the apron since I saw a pic of it a while back. In fact, we are having an apron swap on my most frequented message board and I told the person who got my name that this apron was my absolute fave style!!
I love the Emmeline Apron Sewing Pattern, because it looks like it is flattering on all shapes, plus it is simple to sew!
I think this is my all time favorite apron pattern! So feminine and classy.
The reading pillow looks great!
Oh, the apron pattern is divine (and now I MUST win it because it's sold out), but the reading pillow is so cute too!
I think that this pattern is by far the best thing in her shop.
Definitely love the pattern (tho' I'm always a sucker for a Mei Tai, but my baby is now in kindergarten!).
Although I love the reading pillow--The Apron is my fave!!
I love the reading pillow...and those gnaughty gnomes!
I really enjoyed the reading pillow sewing pattern...this would be perfect for reading in bed!
Well, besides the apron pattern itself (of course!), I love the idea of the reading pillow!
I have a Mei Tai baby carrier that I love! I'd like the pattern so I can share the love and give to my sister and friends who are expecting.
I adore the emmeline apron! I think it might be my ideal apron.
Really??? Just ONE fave??? They are ALL so lovely. I think I'd START with the apron.

I like them all, but that gnome bag is just too super cute!
I've waited for the pattern to come out--my daughter really wants it (age 14!) I also love the reading pillow...
--Barbara
The apron pattern is my favorite, of course!
I've got to vote for the apron pattern too, it reminds me of the cute dresses in the 70's! lol
I like it all...but the bag is my fav...Toni
I love the reading pillow pattern. It would definitely be put to good use in my house!

I love this pattern so much, even though EVERYTHING from Meg's shop is adorable! I also put info on your contest on my Flirty Apron Swap blog .. we have room for a few more participants, too.
The apron pattern is my favorite, followed by the messenger bag. I was ready to order the apron pattern but maybe I'll hold out to see if I win it here!! Thanks!

I am obsessed with her Mischievous Gnome Messenger Bag Sewing Pattern. My family is going on an Alaskan cruise this summer and I am making a bag for everyone to use on our excursion days. I have the pattern on my wish list hints for my husband. Let's keep our fingers crossed he gets it and it ends up in my possession!!!!
My favorite item is certainly the Emmeline Pattern, especially the tie in the front version. Love it! So feminine and gosh darn lovely!
I don't have a blog of my own yet, but I sure am enjoying everyone elses!
I've been waiting for the Emmeline Pattern.

I love the Emmeline apron. I tried my own version of it but did work out so I guess I need the pattern.

I have been eying the Emmeline apron since she first posted a picture of it. I even got on the pre-order list, but didn't have money to buy it at the time. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up all her patterns when our tax returns come in. :D
I love the Emmeline apron too! I saw it reviewed on Peacock Chic blog, and now I want it even more!
I love the reading pillow, it'd be perfect for knitting and reading at the same time!
The mei tai looks wonderful. I have a mei tai and was thinking about trying to sew my own.
love the apron and the Mei Tai Baby Carrier
Hard to choose a fave. Messenger bag pattern is VERY cute.
i love love love the emmeline in stripes/teal bow!!! the reading pillow is a close 2nd... :)
I love the apron. I have a reading pillow already, but would be tempted if I didn't.
I love this Emmeline apron pattern. I've been dreaming about it. I am also intrigued by the Mei Tai baby carrier. It looks beautiful.
Oh, I would love to have the Emmeline apron pattern! What a great look!
I like the gnome messanger bag.
I love the gnome messenger bag. Way cute.
Oh I love the mei tei sling pattern. Wish I'd seen it earlier....
the apron is too cute. I would never wear it to cook, I wouldn't want it to get messy. It's too cute.
Blogged here too! :D
The apron is completely adorable!
i love, love, LOVE the emmeline!
Loved her shop! I was wowed by the Emmeline Apron Sewing Pattern of course, but I'm emailing a friend about her Mei Tai Baby Carrier Sewing Pattern because it looks awesome!!! And great pricing, too!
The apron pattern is my favorite. {My favorite color combination is aqua and red!} But, I love the reading pillow too. I've never seen one before. That is such an awesome idea!
~ Jennifer
Definitely love the apron and the fact that it's reversible! But oooh, reading pillow! What a fantastic item! I've posted a little entry about this:
http://corgipants.blogspot.com/2008/02/we-almost-out-of-boxes.html
I just love her apron!
I love the book pillow!!! I have tried many things and this one has strings to keep the pages from blowing...genius!!!
I would have to say that very apron! That is gorgeous!!! If I won, I'd say the Emmeline Apron!
I love the reeading pillow, and the apron is fabulous!!!
Love your reading pillow. That would come in handy when I'm reading in bed.
The messenger bag pattern is incredible. All of her stuff is! I love how you can put the ties in the front on her apron pattern. Too cool.
Blogged it HERE.
forgot to tell you earlier that I blogged it here:

Thanks!!!!
I have to say I love the apron. I have seen it several places and am in love!

Okay so I already own the pattern and you don't have to choose me, but if I did win I would regift it to my sisters. Meg is awesome & I love this apron. I will make a link from the Secret Stitch Site just because I love this apron so much and it is so freaking cute! I finally made it double sided & followed all the directions! Meg would be so proud.
The Emmeline Apron Sewing Pattern is my favorite!

the apron is lovely and the mei tai equally lovely:)
I do like the reading pillow but have to say that the apron is may fave./
I like the apron the best!
The reading pillow is an ingenious idea, and the pattern is perfect, however, I'd have to say the red polka dotted apron with blue trim wins my heart. Those exact colors are what I've incorporated into my decorating color palate and can only imagine (and perhaps, win??) how adorable it would look hanging up in my kitchen! I don't see those two colors together too often, so this one was a clear choice!
I placed your link 2 times on my blog.
Thanks again, KJ
So, so pretty! I like the Mischievous Gnome Messenger Bag Sewing Pattern
Please include li'l ol' me!
Thanks, KJ
P.S. I had to delete my first comment because I published before sumitting my favorite item. Brain fade...
I love the apron, of course, but the Reading Pillow is also way way cool.
I Really Really Love the Apron pattern!!
It is so Darling!!
The messenger bag pattern gets my vote as a favorite (outside of the apron pattern, of course!)
Oh yes..This apron pattern is a must.
I was not able to pay with paypal for some weird reason ( maybe lack of aptitute, mine of course..hhaha).
My collection is requesting the presence of this exquisite pattern...I just spent my whole vocabulary..hahha ( bad on too).
Fabulous patterns you have made.
The emmeline apron pattern is my favorite. It is feminine, stylish and reversible!.
As a mom-to-be, I also looove the Mei Tai Baby Carrier - It's on my wishlist for the baby shower :)
I love both the emmeline apron and the mischeivous gnome messenger bag patterns...I want them both!
The apron is my favorite! I would love to win one-- I never win anything!! :o) The book bag is very cute too. Such awesome patterns!
I love this pattern so much, I had to make sure I was able to comment 2 times, so this is on my blog! Thanks! Katie :-)
well, the apron, of course
I love the Mischievous Gnome Messenger Bag pattern (as well as the apron pattern).

I think the apron is my fave! Love it!
I love the apron pattern! I can't wait to get one made!
The Emmeline apron is my absolute favorite, she picks the most amazing fabrics and I love that the tie can come to the front for an adorable bow. I would wear this over a t-shirt with jeans as an outfit, super cute!
I love the Mei Tai Baby Carrier. I think I will definitely have to get that pattern for when I have my first baby. I also really like the Emmeline Apron. It looks like it would be a lot of fun to make.
The apron is my favorite but you gotta love the pillow if you read as much as I do!
Its got to be the apron pattern, I've been eyeing it up for ages! x

The apron, the messenger bag, the desk, and if I had an infant, the sling. Love, love, love 'em all! Great stuff. Thanks for the giveaway. I've been coveting this since it came out!
I love all. The apron and Mei Tai Baby Carrier are the faves though.
I love the apron, though the mei tai is cute too.
Definitely the reading pillow! Love it. jeniferbooth3@att.net

The apron. I LOVE the apron. So sassy and still practical! I am past the baby carrier stage, but it is clever!
Ooooh... The messenger bag for sure.
That messenger bag is pretty darn cute, but you know I'm going to go for the apron pattern every time! :)

I have been coveting this apron pattern and would love to have one. Actually put it on my birthday list!!!! It is gorgeous!!
My 2nd fave is the messenger bag, saw one made on Peacock Chic's blog and it looks great!! Thanks!
jennifertuttle@bellsouth.net
The patterns all look great, but I like the messenger bag the best. It looks really useful, but the real draw is the gnomes. :) I'd have to at least line it with gnomes!
Please add me for a 2nd go round!!! I linked this giveaway to my little blog.... you can find me at http://wooliegirl.blogspot.com
Thanks!!!
my favorite is the reading pillow. I love the apron too. Etsy is a wonderfully addictive thing!
Unfortunately, I don't have a use for the mai tie any more, so I'd have to say I love her Emmeline apron. It's beautiful in those colors too!
The winner is: the reading pillow!! The ribbons make life easier reading outside, especially when interrupted since you don't loose your page.
My favorite is the apron. I have been lusting after it since I first saw it.
Love the messenger bag & great prices!! The apron is like a sexy sun dress, way too cute!

My favourite pattern is definitely the baby carrier. Want a wonderful gift for any new mother and baby team.

The Emmeline apron pattern is definitely my favorite. Cute and practical at the same time!
I love the apron, it is so feminine.
I love the apron pattern the best. I love how feminine it is... I've never been one for that basic, ordinary apron shape. This one is infinitely cuter!
Hello! I just found your blog doing a search for cute aprons. I've been wanting a pretty feminine looking apron, and thought I'd search for some ideas to show my Mom to get me for my birthday next month. So I was so excited to see you blog and that you are having a fun giveaway for a VERY cute apron! I checked out the etsy shop, and I think everything is super cute, but my favorite is definitely the apron!
I absolutely love the apron pattern and was disappointed to see that it sold out (on my birthday, as a matter of fact). It is so cute! I also love the Mischievous Gnome Messenger Bag Sewing Pattern. I am an elementary librarian, and I think it would be fun to make these for my teacher friends. Thanks for hosting the giveaway. :)
I have been drooling over the apron pattern and the messenger bag. I hope I win the apron pattern so I only have to purchase the messenger bag that would make my day.
My personal favorite is the reading pillow, I've had my eye on it for a little while now.
I love the apron pattern! It's so cute I'd be tempted to wear it as a dress! I'd especially like to win this as she's SOLD OUT!
I love, love, love the apron pattern!!!! I just had to blog about it on my new site...
