Apron Giveaway!
Sep. 23, 2009 • 8:21 AM
Over the past year or so I have developed a real liking for aprons. I think they are fun, helpful and also a reminiscent item.
The apron is certainly helpful in saving your clothing while cooking as well as with other domestic activities. I can always picture a women walking to her garden and gathering up her harvest into her apron to carry inside. The aprons of the past, worn almost everyday, certainly would have some wonderful stories to tell if they could. Even to the child running to their mama crying, head hitting the apron as they hug and the child's tears filling the mother's apron. Aprons are mother's helpers and a reminder to me of simple and wonderful things!
I have a small collection now and it is a fun collection to have. The aprons will hold special memories to me as I am teaching my older girls now how to cook. Someday I will look at the aprons we're wearing now and the memories will flood into my mind. I have picked up a few cute aprons at thrift stores and one new, one was a gift (a pattern to be sewn) and my older daughters have each sewn me aprons at their sewing classes. I've never won an apron yet so hopefully I will possibly win this one!!! 
Here is the giveaway for a nice Edwardian giveaway! Check it out and enter if you'd like!

It just seems like we like so much of the same things. I love aprons too, but don't have many - and I think the ones I did have have been confiscated by my daughters. :) My 15 yr. old really loves them - and picks one up here & there and wears them often - even to Walmart. I bought her a pretty half-one for her birthday - $25, can you belive it? A good sewing project indeed.
Scrolling down to see what else you have been up to - we have Amy Pac's OT lapbook project too -- love it!! But we just do it when we reach that part in our daily Scripture reading, so it will be a while until we are done - then we will do the NT one after that. Love Amy's stuff!!!
Thanks for stopping by - I haven't been too good at keeping up with my bloggy friends, but hope to get back at it. No, sorry, I'm not on Facebook, but may perhaps join someday. I'll let you know if/when I do. I have a couple of other friends that are trying to get me to join too - so I may break some day. lol

I just picked up a pattern at the store to sew an apron. I don't own any now - but I have always thought they were very nice, too.
Blessings,
Michelle
