So, Wednesday was National Walk to School Day - so I walked to school - and walked home too.
And on my way home, I discovered a darling little shop that has just opened up next to the karate studio on Foothill. It's an apron store!!
They also do alterations and custom sewing. Their apron selection is quite lovely and reasonable - to my way of thinking anyway. And they are delightful women - they are sisters from Montreal - they immigrated here 30 years ago - just when we came!! And their dad used to own and operate Gem City Jewelers. He has since died and that store and Boxx Jewelers have both closed.
And one of them lives by the Heslops - went to school with Connie!! I love the small world that is Monrovia!! And I know you'll want to pay a visit when you come.
The photos were taken during a "drive by" - and I was driving!! Hence the poor quality and composition.

Hmmm. I am a bit skeptical about a store that just sells aprons.
You wouldn't be if you saw it!!
And they do alterations, pattern sewing, costumes and custom designs!
I was curious about that little shop that I saw in the corner of my eye while whizzing down Foothill--glad you stopped by! I will do so myself very soon!
