Apronology



What do you know?

I participated in the  Apronology magazine's challenge, and the challenge was about designing a kitchen apron.
For my apron I took inspiration from my mother.
In the Spring I traveled to Egypt to visit my elderly mother, and I have not seen her for a while. It turned out to be the trip of a lifetime. I discovered old photographs and trinkets from my life growing up there. Each photo and artifact took me further down memory lane.
Anyway when I came back I only had a couple of month to whip an idea for the apron. It had to be mother. :-)
 If  my apron photos published, for sure  my mother will get the biggest kick out of it !!!!

Love,
