Yes, aprons do bring back a lot of wonderful memories growing up. Watching grandma and my mom cook the best meals. Lots of love doing the things they loved to do. Making tamales, especially during the Christmas holidays. What great memories I have about grandma and my mom!!!
I love to wear aprons. I make them and give them out as gifts. The ones I make are reverseable. My daughter also makes them and wears them and gives out for gifts also.
Merry Christmas to all and blessings too.

I love aprons. Only have one that I wear when I am cooking Thanksgiving dinner for 24. My SIL made it for me in the 70s and it is a "full" apron and buttons (top button) in the back. It has pockets sewn along the bottom edge, which hits at mid thigh. I love wearing it.

Thank you for sharing. When I gave aprons for christmas one year, my nieces were wanting what the other chose. I told them, wear them with lots of love, so you can pass them on, and the ones wearing the apron can feel the love that comes with the apron. It feels so good to give and know others appreciate the gifts.
Blessings to all.
Let's pray for our soldiers everywhere, especially those in danger.
Psalms 91 is the soldiers prayer.
Thanks again,

I love this too. Someone emailed it to me a couple of years ago and then I lost it. I had also thought about making aprons to sell and attaching this story to them. Maybe next year! Lots of cute apron patterns out there now!

I wear an apron! Mine is the onepiece type that criscrosses in the back and has no ties. I know my #2 daughter wears aprons so I asked her if she would like me to make her some. She said she didn't like the ones I wear. She wants some of the old kind, I guess so she can look like Susie Homemaker! But she will get them!

My Mother always wore a towel around her waist to wipe her hands and use as a pot holder her mother always used the bib type and so did my dads mom when she milked her cow or churning butter . My husband grandmother always wore a apron with a little pocket she kept a small little larger than a thimble size can with her snuff in it my husband sister got the apron and snuff can when she passed away
