When the allotted time was up, Stone's idea had produced 20 decorated aprons, from women ages 28 to 81, of varying ethnicities. Two of them were breast cancer survivors. Motherhood and divorce were among the themes the women depicted. The aprons became a traveling exhibit that was shown in the Koret Gallery at the Albert L. Schultz Jewish Community Center in Palo Alto as well as elsewhere in California and nationally. And while the friend who was the genesis for the project lived to see the first opening, she later died of the disease that affected Stone so deeply since the diagnosis.
