Happy cooking and happy sewing!

  4. Not an easy choice with so many styles to choose from. An easy way to add a festive touch, especially when it co-ordinates with the table linens.

  5. Cute patterns! The one I recall my mother wearing wear red chiffon with sequins - totally impractical for cooking but pretty to wear to set the table.
