Quilted to a Tea

It’s almost time for the annual Tie One On Day. What is Tie One On Day? It is the delightful brain child of one lovely lady, EllynAnne. She is also the author of a very lovely book, Apronisms, filled with photos, and stories about the humble accessory, the apron.

EllyAnne conceived the idea of Tie One On where on the day before Thanksgiving she encourages everyone to pause in the preparation of your own bounty, wrap a loaf of bread or other baked good in an apron, tuck a prayer or note of encouragement in the pocket, and tie one on…an apron, of course! and deliver the wrapped bundle to someone in need of spiritual or physical sustenance.

You can read more about her and her beautiful collection of aprons here, http://apronmemoriesabout.blogspot.com/
I think Tie One On Day is a fantastic idea and I encourage everyone to participate. What a wonderful activity for moms, grandmas and daughters of all ages to share in.
