Retro Apron
The housewife of the 1950′s always wore an apron along with her neatly set hair, lipstick and high heel pumps all the while completing her tasks in a timely fashion. Hubby got a drink at the door after a hard days work and dinner was ready waiting for him shortly there after. Those were the days right? May be. At least women could concentrate on their home and family without the stress of having to deal with a demanding boss, backstabbing co-workers and inconsiderate clients. Really, this is not the point of my post. All I want to talk about are aprons. Yes, aprons! Retro aprons. I honestly love them. Keeping clothing stain free while cooking can be a challenge so why do we not wear them? Only Babas wear them. Maybe ol’ Baba was smart. Keeping our clothing from getting stains on them is the only smart thing to do. Sooooooo, I’m going to sew one… a retro one. I’ll be doing a follow along as I sew this. It’ll be sooort of a tutorial. You’ll see soon.
