I think the aprons are beyond gorgeous and although they (for whatever reason I can't imagine) didn't make the cut this time, you'll be gracing the cover soon, my dear.

That's the type of attitude that will take you far! I for one think your aprons are beyond gorgeous and it's a loss to the new addition coming out to not have them included.
