A nice blue color was used for the logo and printing on the vintage seed sack chosen for this apron.
The apron reads:
Moews
Improve
Moews Seed Co.
Granville, Ill.
Cotton webbing was used for the neck strap and the waist ties. Cold water wash and line dry are recommended to prevent fading and shrinking.
The apron does have a few issues, including general stains as are typical of this age of sack, as well as some rust spots (see photos). The fabric has a looser weave than a canvas fabric. Please consider all of these factors before purchase.
The bodice width is 12 inches.
The waist is 23 inches.
The length is 28 inches from the top bodice center to the hemline.
The waist ties are each 51 inches.
Please use measurements to determine size. This apron was designed for men, but many women like to purchase these sturdy aprons.

* Please keep in mind this apron was created from an authentic vintage cloth sack. Photos show the design and print darker than in actuality. While the apron is described as accurately as possible, due to the vintage quality there may be age marks not noted specifically. Also, finding some or many seeds or feed pieces caught in the fabric is quite common. The bags have been washed at least once and many seed/feed pieces have already been removed, but some may remain.
But please contact me if you have any problems with your order.
