Apron Lover’s Giveaway Winner

On By In Blog
Random Human Valerie of Five Star Cleaning picked the winner of the Apron Lover’s Giveaway, a pre-release copy of the second edition of apronology. Congratulations, Catey from Utah!!

The giveaway copy arrived in today’s mail, and I very very carefully turned the pages, front to back. And let me tell y’all right now that it is stunning and more.

I have to mail it out tomorrow, which is going to be hard to do! I put in an order for my own copy at Paper Silver Stone, an independent creative shop in Canon City, about a forty minute ride from where I live. apronology can be purchased from the publisher and major book and hobby stores. However you can secure a copy, just do it! From my one look-through, I deem it a treasure.

Thank you, Beth, for supporting this giveaway, providing the copy of apronology, and making Catey’s day!
Aprons for apronology “3” are already being accepted! Deadline for submissions is early September. On your mark, get set…. hooray for aprons!
