an apron giveaway
as i mentioned friday, i have been finding quite a few vintage aprons lately and wanted to share...so i am hosting a little giveaway for this springy pink and white checked smocked apron and a few other surprises.
(did you catch alicia's joy while smocking earlier this year? i suddenly started to notice smocking everywhere after her series of posts on the topic. items that are "smocked" really are quite adorable.)
to enter this little giveaway, all you need to do is leave a comment on this post. i would love it if you would share a favorite apron memory or story in your comment. if you don't have one, share something that has made you smile lately. i will close the comments on thursday evening and draw a winner friday.
comments have been closed for the giveaway. thanks so much for participating. check back friday afternoon for the winner.

Well, I don't have an apron story, but I'd like to create one, so put my name into the drawing too.
Yesterday, on the ferry into San Francisco, I smiled at a little boy who was probably two years old and happily singing his ABCs. I couldn't hear everything, but I think he got it right.
Aproooonnnnnn.... What a funny word. After I read all the comments the word APRON is so strange. AAPPrrrRRONnnnn....Well I wear one at work, not anything this cute. It would be destroyed. I only know one person who wears one. And she is as cute as your cute pink apron. And thinking about my friend makes me Smile.
My first sewing experience was making an apron in Home Ec. Class back in the late 60's. It was purple and had wonderful pockets. I always wonder where that apron ended up..I think about it often. I have several that my grandmother made or wore they are very special to me as I remember her wearing them around the kitchen.
i love your new banner liz! and my apon memories are all about my nana...her vintage aprons with big pockets full of caramels, well love recipe cards, sewing scissors and clippings from knitting magazines. an apron full of teasures to a curious little girl :)
i want to thank you for your late night wednesday post...finding it here this morning felt like a warm hug during this particularly difficult week.
i don't have an apron story to share, other then the fact that i don't own one and so wearing one of yours would would most definitely make me smile.
love and blessings on your day, liz...my visit here has definitely brought both to mine.xo
