Owner, Lisa was inspired to make a line of "Cobbler Style" aprons after falling in love with the fun prints and functionality of the aprons she found at estate sales. With help from her sister Eleni on a name and logo, Lisa launched her apron business and has them manufactured in Manhattan by fabulous people in the Garment District.
You can pick your own pattern from the selection at Aprons Americana and win it this week by entering below!
This apron picture to the left is of the darling Eleni's Roses fabric. It fully covers your front and ties neatly in the front or back. You can tackle ANYTHING in this apron without fear of messing your clothes. Or use the two apron pockets for your ipod, phone, tissue, or as a place to put veggies from your garden.I know there are many gardening TAG ladies out there who could use this!!!!
The back of a cobbler aprons look like this (to the right). The aprons can either tie in the front or back.Lisa offers 35 different beautiful patterns to chose from at Aprons Americana which all retail at $39.99 each. In addition, she has 24 patterns on clearance for $19.99 which is 50% their normal cost. Additionally, you can find 4 plus size patterns as well. So basically, there is something for everybody here!
Aprons Americana takes pride that each apron is fully edged in almost 11 yards of bias tape. These aprons are high quality and very durable.
Lisa says, "Sometimes I wear them grocery shopping and it's fun, fun, fun to talk to people about them!"

I like the ones that tie in the back. I got ENOUGH going on upfront and don't need a bow! Very cute!
I like the Hop Peppers. I need some spice in my life since my family doesn't like it much.
I really like the Let's Party pattern. I really need an apron.
THe older I get, the more I realize how crucial a good apron is.
I like the RETRO and Steve's Women prints best.
I like Barbara's Birds! (My mother's name is Barbara.) They are all so beautiful so it was a tough decision!
Why of course my favorite is the Roosters and Chicks! But the pink roses comes in a close second :)
Ooo, I like the Birds pattern, it's unique and really pretty.
I love your blog, you know I do. And I need an apron like no other (LOL!!) so imagine my DELIGHT when I found the Anna's Polka Dots pattern -- I love polka dots! I think this is meant to be!! :)
My favorite is snowmen.
Flower Power is so gorgeous!

I love the let's party fabric and the cobbler apron
I like the Retro Housewoman pattern and the style that ties in front. Great aprons to "get the job done"!
Oh, I want them all! The fall one, the winter one, the patriotic one but the one I absolutely have to have is Jay's Tools cause Mountain Man will look very manly in that one.
While I was over there, I noticed the grocery bags and I'm going to order a couple of her beautiful bags. We've been looking for some so we can do our shopping in a more environmentally responsible way.
I love the cobbler style apron because of the comfortable neck piece. I think I would like it in the Retro Housewoman fabric. That would be an old fashioned looking apron. Cool!
these are all neat fabrics, but I'd go with the Let's Party!
:)
I just added you to the "bloggy goodies" list on my blog!

I LOVE the "Let's Party" pattern. It goes with our family motto - Work Hard, Play Hard!

But I WOULD send in a pic if I won one.... ;)
Kerry's Toile is my favorite.
