wonderful stuff !!
No one ever says the accumulation of money is hoarding or cluttering the bank account nor insists that having more than one needs is a criteria for discarding it. Designers must push trends and disposing of goods or else they’re out of business. Love the apronology volumes.
oooooooooooooo- the apron on the cover is SO SO SO callign to me for my daughters Hello Kitty bday party in march! I can be the vintage Mom! YEAH! (cause I already am-lol)
congrats on #3!
Love, love, love your magazine!

This looks FABULOUS!!! I can’t wait to see it! Thank you so much for the chance to win a copy!
The cover looks great. Can’t wait to see the rest and add it to my collection.
I would love this particular issue for sure! Inside I saw an article titled ” Couture, cocktails & Cookies” The apron featured brought me to happy tears!! I have my Nana’s oh so fancy red and black Cocktail half apron!! I use it during the holidays to keep her “right here with me”. I would love to read the article “Cutter quality linens” as well. I love saving old linens and giving them new life!
Thank you for the chance to win a copy of (apron-ology)!!
Please enter me … and Thank you for the chance to win !!! I just love aprons and most things vintage.

would love to add it to my collection with issue 1, 2 and a fantastic book called THE APRON BOOK!
Ohhh… this is my first time seeing this magazine. I will have to hunt down the other two. I would love to win this.
I love aprons, too. In fact, I have started speaking at church events on the topic of aprons. The best laugh I got was when I suggested that we all consider “tying one on”. Then they laughed even harder when I explained it. They think your idea is fabulous, and next year our women’s group is going to try it. Thanks, Ellyanne, for a wonderful idea!
I would love to win, but if I don’t win, where can I buy it?

Oh how I would love to win this book. I must have every apron pattern issued in the last ten years. This past Thanksgiving my smocking group took part in your “Tie One On Day” and we all had so much fun. We all wore our handmade aprons to our Christmas luncheon and they were beautiful. A couple of ladies brought aprons made by their moms and grandmothers. Not many people bought aprons back then, did they? Were they even for sale?
I love your books and read them over and over at night. I think recipe books and pattern books are the adult version of bedtime stories.
I have yet to read a copy…very hard to find! If I don’t win a copy I’ll have to for sure buy it because I’ve been missing out!
Oh that cover is gorgeous!
I’m so sad that I missed you at the Cowgirl Museum in Ft Worth.

I cannot wait to see the latest edition! I’ve become quite apron obsessed. Thanks for the opp to try and win a copy!
It’s wonderful to see the popularity of aprons.
The History of aprons…the memories of aprons…the joy of aprons…and now I can have it all in a magazine…yippee!!

I love aprons would love to win a copy of this magazine. thanks
Would love to receive a copy of this book. Love to see what is new and old with them. Just love aprons. Almost everyone on my list recieved a handmade one in the 2010 December holidays.
When THE APRON BOOK was released I purchased 8 books. I gifted them to my mom, sister, cousins and aunts, daughters and myself. Aprons are a large part of my childhood memories! Love them and would love to have a copy of the magazine! Blessings!
How much fun would this be! I have shared the ‘Tie one on’ philosophy with many friends who love it as much as I!
What a beautiful cover! Can’t wait to see what’s inside!
Meeting you at the Cowgirl Museum in Ft. Worth, hearing your lecture, and seeing all your wonderful aprons was the best reason in the world to play hookey from school (where I work!). I loved every minute of your presentation and loved sharing some of my mom’s vintage linens and hankies with you. I look forward to seeing the new magazine. The apron on the cover makes me feel downright giddy! Love it!
Blessings.
Love aprons and your book! Making them for birthday gifts for three special daughters this year.
Pamcakes.. count me in!! I have an apron that is made like the front part of old timey bloomers and they are the cutest thing i have ever seen. I just love your website!!:)
I collect them and my latest one is a fur one (fake of course) for this latest blizzard we just had!
It gets hot if you wear it too long.
