    I don't wear an apron but I really, really need to. I am a messy cook and an apron would save my shirts. Both my mamaw and grandmother wore aprons. Even with them on, both were very neat at all times.

    Great aprons. I especially like the Valentine's Day apron. Love that fabric.

    Well I happen to love aprons and I do wear them plus I made an apron for all of the women at the family Christmas party - young and young at heart!! They were a hit and everyone loved them. Now whether or not they use them is a different story...

    Both my grandmothers always wore aprons, they looked so out of place without their aprons not being worn. I have an apron but makes me want to get into wearing them. Sure save on my blouses.

    Give an apron to many of the young ladies of today and they may ask you what it is. LOL, LOL.
    Others may feel they don't need an apron over their sweat suits.
    Then there are those lovely young ladies who do appreciate an attractive apron in the kitchen.
    Make sure you know which group you're dealing with before you give an apron.

    I wear one at work all day making pizzas. Really saves the uniform from getting covered in sauce and food. But I don't wear one at home.

    How sweet are those pics! I am so happy to see that there are so many of us out there, of all ages, I'm seeing, that are using aprons. Looks like I will be making some some for gifts after all!

    I wear them every time I am in the kitchen. I can't afford to buy new clothes and don't want spots on the ones I have. Love aprons.
