Egg Gathering Apron?
#12
Donna, that brought back memories to me. If I was baking and didn't have enough eggs I would run to the hen house, lift a few hens off the nest and put the eggs in my apron. I just gathered the ends of my apron up and set the eggs in there. I did the same when I went to pick apples ,tomatoes or cucumbers.

I grew up on a farm and gathered eggs often as a kid. I never knew there was a special apron for the job. My mom pulled up her apron by the corners, as others have said. My sister and I used a bowl of some type.

Just a gentle reminder...don't trip and fall with all those little pockets full of eggs....now that is one sorry mess. LOL!! Made one for a friend of mine...yep she tripped. But she still enjoys the apron -
