my beautiful apron

Hi, I'm back from my break! I had a wonderful visit with my mom and dad. They left this
morning and I miss them already. It's hard to live so far away from those you love.

While I was gone, my gorgeous apron arrived from Zita and I am so excited to show it off
to you. Zita started with a vintage apron base in the sweetest shade of pale pink with tiny
lace trim. She added the perfect bits and bobs to create this vision of beauty just for me:

I love that Zita used an apron that was sheer because you can still read all of the stencils
on Tallulah Belle through the apron. The top is trimmed out with lace, gorgeous gathered
velvet ribbon and a string of pearl trim. And a pretty millinery flower tied up with a bow

Zita used the velvet trim on the pocket top too, and added the most beautiful vintage pin.

It looks so very sweet, I wish you could see it in person:

As if my wonderful apron weren't enough of a treat, Zita also sent me these:

Isn't that a yummy collection of goodies? I thought everything looked so pretty sitting on
the plate, that I have it just like that on one of my tables:

I have to thank again, our darling hostesses Heather and Stephenie for inviting me to join
this fun and pretty swap. And a huge thank you to dear Zita for the very beautiful apron
that she made for me, I do love it so.
