    Yes it is Mary Jane and I about fell off my chair when I saw it. Mine all mine!

    Ok here are some more. They need pressed I know. Most are mint condition.
    This is just Christmas Season mostly. I have themes.

    A cute idea is to tie them on back of chairs for Christmas or other colors like this for parties etc.
    They make me smile. First thing I ever sewed in my life was an apron back in homemaking.
    A few more and all half aprons. I have bib ones also.

    Just had to share - I was watching a Christmas cookery program during lunch today which featured Michel Roux (senior) wearing not only a 1960s psychedelic print silk shirt but also also his black and white cow print 'Christmas' apron - which he said hid any stains :D

    I don't collect aprons but bought these two and have one more that was a gift sometime in the 1970's that I just took a quick photo of and will upload. I bought the aqua apron in 2001 before I started collecting vintage clothing! It spoke to me!

    Love everyone's aprons! I also suffer from a tendency to hoard aprons. I started my holiday baking, and thought I'd post a pic of my favorite holiday apron. Don't mind the wrinkles and heavy dusting of flour!

    This was a wonderfull 1950s micro-accordian pleated deadstock apron, but I had to wash it to remove a dark stain, so now it is just a very full skirted candy striped apron:

    Giving this a bump, I found two cute apron patterns in my archives.

    Still love this thread - I have such a soft spot for aprons - perhaps because my mother always wore one and they were all pretty cool. This one from Sandy's collection is amazing.
