Bought the cutest greyish-blue kitchen apron for second son's girlfriend - sweet son picked out the design and it turned out so cute. I worried that being monochromatic, it was too plain - but, once I finished it, I realized the design looked like it belonged. Does that make sense? Thanks for taking a peek! Hugs to all, Laura

Yes, it does make sense. Many a time I have thought that somethings might not go together, but when done, everthing merges together to make a great stitchout...just like yours! How very sweet of your son to pick out what he wanted for his girlfriend, and for you to make such a great gift for his girlfriend. Love this design he chose!

I think, sometimes, less is more. I love the apron so much that I purchased one for my daughter - now she needs to decide on a design (she is so busy, I wonder when she will find the time to take a peek at what designs I have). I did love how Brad decided on the design above - he is so sweet on this girl and she is a sweetheart!! Thanks bunches, my friend for your sweet comment!! Hugs, Laura

I stitched this design on a towel which was to busy and it was a looser, so I agree, less is more. You known me. I sometimes push to the limits. Kay

This looks wonderful. It's such a pleasure when just one or two colours convert what started as a rather plain canvas into something special. Quick, easy and perfect.

It turned out beautifully. And what a thoughtful gift. I'm sure she will love it as it was "created" by two people!

Ooh! I love this Laura, it looks perfect on the towel colour and I love the font on it. Great choice too for the design by your son. I know his "girl" will love it. You are very good to do this for him. Love Chris
