The Apron Discussion

My teapot post prompted another discussion about aprons. Both AngelLaura and Cyclin' Granny have posted about theirs. AngelLaura has made quite a few really nice simple ones. If it didn't mean dragging the sewing machine down off that high shelf in the basement and trying to remember how to use it, then re-remembering all my curse words that go with sewing, I'd make one.

However, Cyclin' Granny has kindly volunteered to make me one as long as I promise to wear it. I've committed, so I guess now she's on the hook. Speaking of on the hook, I do have some apron's to add to the discussion.


The one on the right hook is a little June Cleaver number, that belonged to my mother-in -law. I don't know for sure, but I'm guessing she made it. The one on the left was made by my friend and Muggins' Dog-mother (sort of like a god-mother for dogs ... if I peg out the Dog-mother gets to raise Muggins). It's a Red Hat theme.







This one is the kind I remember from when we were kids. The tea towel wrapped around the neck and secured with either a knot or a diaper pin.












Thus endeth my apron collection - until Cyclin' Granny warms up the sewing machine.

"What the hell are we supposed to be doing with all this stuff?"
"I don't know dear, I haven't a clue."
