When I got married the first time, my grandmother made me an apron just like this and apologized saying that was all she had as a gift. It was the best gift and I used it for many years. Every shower after that and for as long as she could my Grandmother gave those as shower gifts. It got to be a staple on any shopping list to pick up a towel for Grandma to make. I still have the apron. Mine is brown with yellow trimmings. Ok tissues!!!!!
