Eliza came home from school a few weeks ago very sad that her good friend Cassie is moving to New York in two weeks! Being the trusting mother that I am, I called Cassie's mom imediately and sure enough they were moving ASAP. We had to plan a farewell party for Cassie and I had to come up with some party ideas quick. Eliza, Cassie and another friend loved art and crafts and had an "Art Class" once a week that rotated houses with the mom's planning the "Art" lesson. With this in mind, I came up with the idea to make Cassie an "Art Apron." Here is what I did (and I am quite proud of it since I DO NOT consider myself creative at ALL!)
First I made the apron and embroidered it. Yes, I have to put names on everything because I can and it's so FUN!:
Next the girls at the party sign their name and add a hand print.
And now Cassie can take some California friends with her to New York!
Here are some pictures of the girls at the party:

You are plenty creative and your apron proves it. Man I bet that's hard on the poor family to have an impromptu move. Poor Eliza. Moving friends are the pits, we get too much of that here with the huge military pressense. Love the art club idea!
Good Job! I would have never thought of that. You are creative. I love it when you added your touch with your talent of sewing. And of course, that machine of your's doing the name. I liked it. Tell Eliza I am sorry her friend moved. The UPSIDE she now has a pin pal in the Big Apple.
