yep they fit fine well chuffed,

Brilliant. (also means I can reduce mine a bit more! )
I am tired tonight, so I am going to give up searching the net, doing business plans and or sewing.
Glass of wine, TV and an early night me things.
Night all, happy sewing.

Clairewop love the aprons and the Winnie Pooh fabric is great

Mooloo I will start the bags off at a reasonable price as I have used Cath Kidston fabric for one of them (I got it cheap but it's still CK) but it will be interesting to see if they sell
Will keep you informed

I am still buying fabric even though I can't sew

Thank you so much for all your advice on here. I've found the Singer for £88.75 with a free thread pack which looks quite good. I'm not worrying about threading the needle as I'm short sighted so close up work is my forte. However I've got a snipe on that Brother ebay one so I will see if I win that first.

glad you are sorted have fun when it arrives

Thankyou I have manage to cut out 6 Aprons all different sizes out of the Winnie the pooh Fabric,was chuffed it was reduced from £7.99 to £3.99.

Plus I found a blue and white fabric in the remenant bin for £3.98 and got 4 aprons out of it, plus I have a few scrap bits I can cut into squares to try quilting.

I didn't know fabric was much cheaper in America! I am going to America this year I may have to talk my oh into finding a fabric store near where we are going so I can just have a little look :P
