Harvey cooks like we sew&#8211;with passion and lots of education. He reads cook books like we read sewing magazines.<\/p>\n<p>This apron was personalized for Harvey. While he has jumped right on board with our family&#8217;s Florida Gator-mania, he is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and feels a strong connection to his alma mater.\u00a0 <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The embroidery is a stock design. By simply adding Harvey&#8217;s name to the chef&#8217;s hat, embroidering the clothing in Penn colors and adding &#8220;Penn&#8221; text to the grill sergeant&#8217;s apron, this became a very personalized gift.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.janicefergusonsews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/GrillsergeantcloseBrite.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-14217\" title=\"GrillsergeantcloseBrite\" src=\"http:\/\/www.janicefergusonsews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/GrillsergeantcloseBrite.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1064\" height=\"1600\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.janicefergusonsews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/GrillsergeantcloseBrite.jpg 1064w, http:\/\/www.janicefergusonsews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/GrillsergeantcloseBrite-199x300.jpg 199w, http:\/\/www.janicefergusonsews.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/GrillsergeantcloseBrite-680x1024.jpg 680w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1064px) 100vw, 1064px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After receiving the apron, Harvey asked me to lengthen the waist ties to be tied in front.

He is such a wonderful husband and father that I am justifiably crazy about him. I would love to lavish him with sewn expressions of this affection. But how many aprons can a young chef use?
