Great for you! You must be so excited. I love vintage aprons too even though I don't own any. When I was very little my Mom always wore an apron while cooking. She still has one I made for her when I was first learning to sew (very young.)She still has it put away in a drawer with other things she cherishes. I'm sorry I won't be able to see your collection. I remember Kalamazoo very well. I got my teaching degrees at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo.

Can't wait to see the display, I've collected a few vintage ones also but not nearly what you have.

I love aprons and incase you weren't aware of this the Monday after Mother's Day is National Apron Day. Maybe you could some how include that in your display.

Thanks for that piece of info. I did not know that. Originally I offered the aprons for display around Mothers' Day, but the museum declined. Thought that would be a great "tie-in" (pardon the pun!) Penny
