 ok so I am going to take as moment to brag about my latest Apron. I Luv the Themed swaps that we do over at the Sassy~Flirty Apron Swaps.
This one was titled "I Love Lucy".... so I went with one of my favorite things...Chocolate...so naturally the Lucy & Ethyl work at a Chocolate Factory was perfect. 
The trim is actually a chocolate brown but shows up very dark in my photos. I made the ties extra long so the recipiant could wrap the ties arund to the front if she wants.
The main print is of Bon Bons in pinks & browns and I even found fabric panals w/ various pic's of L & E working the assemblly line...what fun it is to be creative & the best part,,,I used an apron, that Sherri~mikesgirl made for me, as the pattern. Thank you Sherri.
Ok, done braggin' for now.

Katmom-
You are SOOOO creative! I love the theme with L&E...one of our favorite shows, and the pink and brown is just so cute. I've seen the bonbon print before...how perfect for what you were doing!
Think of you often...it was so nice to meet you at farm fair...I have my lavender bundle sitting in a spot in my kitchen and think of you each time I see it!
