    Default I'm wearing one right now.

    Now i have wireless I can cook and surf the net in my kitchen. (Being on holidays helps too.) I 'm wearing the red apron my work colleague and friend made for me for Christmas. It is red and was made to go with my retro kitchen! Love it. It's nice and long. Also - this sounds bizarre - but I have made a curtain for my lounge buy stringing little vintage aprons together. Certainly gets visitors talking.

    I love aprons! I have one of my mom's and one of my grandmother's that I cherish. I also have several vintage aprons that I've picked up here and there.

    I love aprons! I have many of my moms and grandmothers that I truly cherish. I have been thinking of making some levi ones out of old bib overalls. And found this pattern on line to do so. I haven't made mine yet, but hope to soon. These look great and you could make the for a little bit of nothing! Me and my recycle thing......

    I've never worn an apron. Neither did my mother.

    did back in the 50's and 60's.

    Hmmm...never thought about wearing one. :chmmm:

    Happy sewing!
