I love this book for the fact it reminds me of all of the great times that I had with my grandma and cousins in the kitchen. It was a trip down memory lane. The stories and pictures are interesting but what really made me pick up the book was the apron patterns. I hope to get some made before Christmas for my daughter and her cousins. Maybe we can make some 4 generation memories yet. I hope they have a fondness for the apron just like my generation did.

It's a great book if you are into history, women's issues, aprons,sewing, fabric, and all that stuff. I LOVED IT. It inspired me to design aprons to make for all my grown children and grandchildren. The designs are there, now all I have to do is sit down and make the pattern, get the fabric, and sew them up;) It's a good read.
