I saw Apron*ology listed in another magazine by Stampington. Has anyone gotten a copy? Would It be a good one to order? Any suggestions for good apron books? A girl can't have too many aprons.

i've seen the magazine at craft stores and bookstores. it was ok to flip through for me. but if i remember i think it was a bit high priced. but most magazines in the stampington family are.

ditto about the price.
I bought their 1st issue at Joanns's using my 40% off coupon.
I did so because our very own Beehavenmaven had one of her sweet
apons featured in it.

yeah always use your coupons. as a note acmoore's will usually give them to you if you ask, michaels not so much any more and alot of the places the coupons are interchangable.

I was just looking at an Apron*ology magazine yesterday at Hobby Lobby. I was going to buy it...till I looked at the price. $14.99 for a magazine is more than I'm willing to pay.

I saw it at a Border's Book Store. Neat idea but too high priced for me.

I purchased it for the shop - customers love to get ideas - I think it is pricey for the information that is in it. Most of the aprons are nothing that you could wear to really get anything done it but their concepts are interesting. I have found it is can give you maybe some ideas but I know I would never wear a knitted apron with tons of flowers but you can get ideas.

I love the A is for Aprons and I also suggest just going to the library and wading thru their books and mag's. Also many of us would glady share info and such with other farmgirls. I have about a dozen on the cutting table, now I just have to get to the sewing machine.
Happy Sewing

Mary, I got a copy of Apronology from another farmgirl that I traded stuff with! I does have some good ideas in it, but I would recommend to see if your JoAnns has it and get it with the coupon! I am not sure I would pay $15.00 for it and if you order it from Stampington's it's $20.00 with shipping.

I don't have a copy of it yet, but "The Apron Book" is really a neat book and they have copies at Amazon for $7.00 and up. I have looked at it and I am planning on getting a copy one of these days!

I love the "Apron Book" I received a copy from my soon to be daughter in law. Monica we are way too much alike - playtime is anytime we are working with our hands.

I got the Apron Book last year and I love it. I gave it as gifts to several friends. Does anyone have a copy of A Perfect Apron? I've read about it but I have not seen a copy.

Hey! I have an extra copy of apron-ology magazine, and what I'm thinking is that I send it to one of y'all, and when she has finished, she sends it on, etc. The photography is wonderful, and just seeing the designs is inspiring. If someone here will figure out how to organize this, I'll get the issue ready for mailing.

We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Greetings Ladies~

Any chance I can get in on the magazine pass-a-round with you ? I love the idea ! Please let me know. The mag sounds interesting but I, too, shy from the price. Thanks. ~Cheri
