I have one cat apron and I wear it only when cooking something messy or when I have better clothes on and don't want to change. It has saved a number of outfits.

I think aprons have become more popular in recent years, based on the numbers of patterns that I see. I use aprons because I'm a slob when cooking and get whatever I'm making all over me, and I even used one when I was painting ceramics. I found an inexpensive $0.50/yd. 60" wide herringbone pattern fabric at a local craft store (unfortunately they are our of business now), and made aprons for the workers to wear at our holiday fair. The men in the kitchen loved them, and some (but not all) wore them and used the pockets to store pen,paper, money, etc. so it didn't get lost. I think I made about 10-12 and they wash great - no wrinkles. Someone told me it's the same pattern that chefs in training wear for pants. I also make smaller aprons for kids who love to cook and bake with their mothers, they were a big hit.

I own quiet a few of them. I wear mine every day I have even made one that is reversible one side is jeans and the other side is outdoor bugs which I wear when I do the yard or work in my vegetable garden. They come in handy espeically when you need the pruners, or string to tie vines and such. I would never do housework or cooking let alone yard work without one. I just love them.

I really just started wearing one about 5 or 6 yrs ago and I LOVE them. Nothing worse than being dressed nice and getting splattered with oil or tomatoes or anything really else while cooking. And I too like to wear one when baking. I've "almost" got my DH trained to wear one when grilling - he's the world's worst at getting stains on his shirts.

oh, yes, I wear bib aprons and also one that is like a long vest. Sure saves my clothes.

I wear them to protect my clothes from stains. I'm a messy cook.

I wear an apron to protect my clothes from spills, spatters, etc. I don't know many women who do use them, but I do give them as gifts sometimes. There are such cute patterns and fabrics for them!

I love my aprons...made to look like the 1940's versions that go over your head. I need a lot of coverup...I'm a messy cook!
