I had high hopes for this pretty apron. The colors are vibrant and very cheerful. But it is very thin and the strap that goes over your neck is so narrow it will be torn in no time. Perhaps if you wear it just for hosting and not for actually working in the kitchen? I am giving it away to Goodwill. Bummed. I loved the pattern. Same for the oven mitts. Although the kitchen towels are very nice. They will hold up.
