Default Not quilts but appliquéd fun

My boss's girlfriend mentioned they go out for all you can eat crab legs regularly & always make a mess of their clothes-- need bibs ( I had made apron cover ups for our ladies at work) so I made them two ( crabby bibs) she's a fun , whimsical kind of gal, he's a little more conservative so, I made her crab fun, his a little more ( real crab like) he didn't know anything about this so, when I finished them I just wrapped a small package with her name on it and left it on his desk to take home.
Later that evening he sent me a picture with the two of them wearing their bibs-- said they Love their Crabbies!

Coloring book pages....I find great appliqués by browsing the coloring book pages. the two of them seem to look better on too. I'm ( relieved) my boss liked his and can't wait to go eat his crab this week. I was kind of worried.
