Tuesday ~ Red all Over

I'm so proud of my son Vincent. He is a senior in high school taking a full-schedule of courses and participating in extra academic activities. He is also working part-time some evenings and weekends. He is applying for colleges and scholarships, and is polishing his resume. Vince has a drive to succeed and he wants make a difference in this world. I know that God walks along side of him, so I am at peace. When I see my son I can't believe how fast he has grown. I'm happy that he has matured but a part of me is sad to know that soon he will be leaving home. Vince carries with him a spirit of faith and courage, and I pray for him everyday.

My current sewing project is a vintage country apron. The base of the apron is a large kitchen towel that I bought at a local antique store. I paid more than I wanted to spend but I just couldn't pass it by. There are a couple of vintage pillows in my living room that I made from this fabric a few months ago. I bought 3 more fabrics this past weekend. I couldn't resist. I'm going to add red polka dot straps and red lace to the apron. I just love it because the fabric matches the red accents I have around the house. As soon as I'm done sewing it, I will post a picture of it.

  1. Oooh. What is that food? It looks wonderful. It's a wonderful feeling, really, to be so proud of your child. And it sounds like you've got every reason to be. So many children being led in the wrong direction. I"m proud of you and him. Do you think he'll stay in Texas for college?
