Now that our presidential election is finally over, I want to celebrate by having an apron giveaway. Of course, I realize the victory referred to in this pattern has nothing to do with presidential elections, but I don’t care — they’re patriotic and so cute. Although I don’t own this pattern, I’m thinking I can pull off a pretty good facsimile using the envelope photo. I just realized those little stars are made with rick-rack — very clever.
So, if you live in the United States and would like a custom victory apron made just for you by me, simply leave a comment on this post telling me which one of the 3 styles you would prefer (the blue, white, or red/white stripe). Comments will close at noon Sunday (November 11th), and if there’s more than one comment, I will use a random number generator to select the winner. I’ll have your finished apron in the mail a few days after that.
Love the rick rack stars, I’m going to have to remember that! I love the white one and what a great way to celebrate the election.
What cute aprons, and how very generous of you to make one as a giveaway! I love the graphic qualities of the blue one. 🙂
Oh Martha, I love all three of the aprons, wouldn’t care which one you made! What a neat pattern, SOOOOo WWII.
We are hunkered down now waiting 3-6 inches of snow. I pray we don’t lose power again, but it seems likely since I noticed that some of the electrical boxes are just ducked tape right now (hey there is a LOT of damage here). As much as I dread it, I worry so for our neighbors in Jersey and New York. Not good, not good at all.
Anyway, have a great day and thanks for being so wonderful,
Hugs, Mickie
I Love the red and white stripe. All versions are so cute. It would be a great pattern to have. Thank you.
The red/white stripe is my favorite, but everyone is correct – -they are ALL gorgeous and would love to have any one of them. Would also like any tips on construction. Thanks!
they are all so cute but I think the red one is my favorite!
All of the aprons are so very pretty, but I really like the blue one. Thank you so much for this very generous giveaway.
Well, how cute is this? I love that striped one. This is a very nice giveaway, Martha!
What a tough decision to make. If I had to choose then it would be the blue one. Thanks for the inspiration to make a vintage apron and the giveaway.
They are all so cute but I think the blue one is my favorite.
Tks for a lovely give-away!
Oh how cute are those!!!! What a great give-away, Martha. You are the Apron Queen, you know! I love the red and white striped one best, maybe because I wouldn’t dare stripes on my own, lol!
I have a passion for patriotic things. Loving the red and white striped one. Thanks for a chance.
How cute! I love the striped one. I need to look into those rick rack stars…
thanks for the chance! I love the white one. About to become a new follower.
Oh wow! I made a miniature red/white/blue star quilt to accompany Vote day and special National Holidays. It would be wonderful to have an apron too. I like the white one! Stars and stripes forever!
I love them all but the red/white stripe is probably my favorite. Although that shield shaped pocket is calling to me. I think that could be turned into a neat quilt block very easily with just two pieces of fabric – a blue with white stars print and a red/white stripe. Yeah, I could do that. Thanks for the idea and your generosity in sharing these wonderful vintage patterns.
I LOVE the red and white stripe apron…love aprons and this has a great vintage feel! Found your site recently-FANTASTIC!
Love aprons! The striped one is so cheerful. I have been reading your blog for some time now and have learned a lot from you! Thank you!
This is a wonderful giveaway. I love all 3, but my favorite is the white one with the striped pockets.
Great! I like the blue one best best. All are so cute, though!
Oh goodness, they are all so special, I wear an apron everyday, grandkids always look in my pockets for special treats when they come over, and always comment on my apron, grannie you wore that apron last time we came over, they notice EVERYTHING!!! I know they would notice the red one!!!
Martha….. in all your patterns and such, have you ever come across an NRA? These beautiful patriotic aprons made me think of the prior decade and the National Recovery Act. It would be a blue eagle with the NRA letters. hahaha, no, not the National Rifle Association which called me solid for two months prior to the election.
Or, have you ever seen the NRA label in clothing of the period?
They are all so cute, but the white one is my favorite. Oh, and could I also have the red dress? 🙂
You are so generous. I love the blue one. I’m also glad you didn’t completely give up your blog!
What cute aprons! This is such a great give-away, how nice of you. I like them all but the red one is my favorite. You are good, I need a pattern for everything, please post your finished one before you send it off!
