Jessie Steele aprons were created by a mother and daughter after collecting vintage aprons for years. They combined the vintage charm and style with a 21st century fit and appeal.
These aprons are not only beautiful and feminine, they are designed to make the woman who wears them look and feel good.
They have a huge selection of hostess, chef and children's aprons.
I especially love viewing them in collections with matching towels, pot holders and oven mitts.
I know you want one.
Here is your chance.
Jessie Steele is giving away this fabulous Cream and Black Damask Chef Apron.
It's a durable sturdy apron with tons of style. You know how much that means to me.
Here's how to enter:
1) Leave a comment and tell me what you think is the #1 quality in an apron. Make sure to leave your email address.
2) For a second entry visit Jessie Steele on facebook and like them, then leave me a comment telling me you did it.
Giveaway ends Sunday March 13th at 10pm MST.
Thanks for being part of our week of apron inspiration.

hmmm, you would think it's durability, but I might say cuteness :)
i would have to say that it does it's job and keeps me from getting messy. i am very messy in the kitchen
Good quality and cuteness are tied. I want something that lasts but I also want something I love to wear.
It has to wash well...because I use an apron and have found a few that look cute but aren't really wash and wear items :-)
Fabric. I hate aprons that are really thin material that absorbs water. When I wash dishes I want the apron to help protect my clothes, not just be another layer that gets wet (I'm a messy dish-washer!) (nibblesskribblesATgmailDOTcom)
My aprons need to have full coverage- top to bottom, side to side. Not only am I messy, but so are my short-stature helpers. Thanks!
I would say cuteness for sure, and that it washes well. these ones are SO adorable!

yeah, cuteness. :) My aprons hang for everyone to see, so it's important that they look good. haha.

durability is definitely first on the list, but cuteness is a very close second. :) Oh, and pockets...I love an apron with pockets!

I love a cute apron - but it has to be sturdy & fit right. All of the cuteness in the world doesn't make up for a flimsy apron.

I believe the #1 quality in an apron is the way it makes me feel when I’m wearing it. I love feeling like cooking and baking is FUN instead of work. An apron makes me feel like I dressed for the occasion of baking (as funny as that sounds). : )

I LOVE when there is a detachable hand towel on the apron! I think it's great to be able to wipe your hands down while cooking/baking and not make your beautful apron a mess! krisbuck (@) hotmail (dot) com
What I love about an apron...I like if it is comfortable, wide enough to tie around my plus size waist and good coverage so that I am still not wearing flour after taking it off.
I follow Jessie Steel on Facebook.
It has to be easy to put on! I don't want several ties that need to be done each time. It looks like this one has a halter top, which is so much easier!

It need to be a good quality but it has to be cute! My current apron is solid black and boring!

Gorgeous aprons. I would say that it covers me and is super cute. I'm a personal chef, I do a lot of cooking and want to look cute in my aprons.

My most needed quality is length! I need it to be long enough or I get flour and everything all over my pants- I guess I am either too tall or just too messy:)
I "liked" Jessie Steele on facebook.
For me, the number one quality in an apron is how it looks. If it looks junky, chances are I won't wear it. A cute apron, however, will be unlikely for me to ever take off. ^_^

gotta go for the cute!
yes, i want it! :D
For me, the #1 factor is all about cuteness! I have aprons that I want to just wear as part of my outfit because they are so cute.
#1 quality is that it covers but cuteness is right up there!! Gorgeous aprons

cute with lots of pockets.
having a place to wipe my hands instead of running over to get a hand towel off the stove and having to put it back every time i need to wipe my hands. jslowe7205 (at) yahoo (dot) com
I love these vintage inspired aprons. They remind me of visiting my Grandmother who wore an apron every day.
I'm short and small, so adjustability is big for me!
that apron is so cute! i think that an adjustable neck strap is the most important part of an apron, because i hate having to stick a safety pin up there or tie a knot in it because it doesn't fit right. maybe i'm just mis-shapen. either way, love this apron!
i "liked" jessie steele on facebook!
I think the number one quality is fit! I know I'm not the ideal shape, but getting aprons that allow for "spill over" is awful :D
I also think durability is a number one attribute :D
brookeannaroberts(at)Yahoo(dot)com
I had to think about this! I have to say the fit is important because if the apron makes me feel in-proportionate, I won't wear it.

Fit would be important to me!! Especially since you're moving around a lot & will be bending down. I love the green & white damask! Thank you for the opportunity!!

I think that the #1 quality of this apron is definately the cute print! The pockets will come in handy too!
I want an apron that is both pretty and also made of durable fabric, no sense if it looses its structure after one much needed wash.
I think durability and cuteness...
casnell@gmail.com
I love it! So beautiful! I think my favorite quality in an apron is the perfect balance of functionality and beauty. I am very old fashioned, mainly because I grew up with my British grandmother living in the house with us - she always wore an apron, and nothing plain, always a beautiful vintage apron. When Grandma would "tidy up" she would put things in her pockets until she found a home for them (mostly MY bobby pins that were scattered thoughout the house).
Thanks!

of course the most important thing is keeping you clean, but I think you want the second thing, so I would say comfort. I have an apron that is uncomfortable so I don't wear it as often as I would.

The most important thing for me when I look to purchase an apron is if it looks good! If I have company for a meal or party, I want to look cute, not "grandmaish".

I think it would have to be style, I want something that will make me feel like I look good no matter what I'm doing in it.
Well if I was sensible I'd say washability - I want to be able throw it into the washer and dryer without worrying. But really it's the look of it! And the prize apron is gorgeous.
those aprons are gorgeous! i would love to win one. i love aprons because you can look cute while doing housework.

i think that an apron must be washable :)

Definitelly the cuteness factor, and I'm not even ashamed to say it!!
Thanks for the fun giveaway! and inspirational week!
Full coverage! My hubby always laughs at shirt being covered in flour. I love black, white and damask, so I love this apron. Thanks for the chance to win.

Cute apron! I think it's important not to look like my grandma's apron (sorry grandma) and if it's easy to get on and off!
farrisdeeanna@yahoo.com
These aprons are adorable! I have two aprons that I never wear because it looks like I tied a bag round me, which gets the job done, but I want to feel pretty too. So I guess the #1 quality is cuteness! :)
Thanks for hosting the giveaway!

Ties long enough to wrap all the way to the front and give me something to hang my towel on.
I would love an apron to be something I would love to put on everyday when I'm cooking!

It has to fit well on your chest. Sometimes if they are too loose you can lose some stuff down it!!! Thanks for the giveaway!
Durability. I want it to wash up well so I can keep using it. What good is an apron if it looks good once and can't be worn again?
Durability... Fabric... and Cuteness! I love aprons, and want one that will last!

Definitely Cuteness! Anyone can tie a towel around their waste to be practical, but I like to feel cute even if I'm working in the kitchen. So cute aprons like Jessie Steele's are a MUST HAVE!!

Washes well - hands down. Who wants something that helps them get a chore done but then gives them more chores (ironing) in the end. sherrillneal yahoo

I think it has to be style. I want the apron to make me feel special and inspired. I think food turns out better when you feel good fixing it!
Number one quality in an apron is that it has to fully cover my shirt. I'm quite messy in the kitchen.

Wash and wear durability, followed by cuteness then pockets! Growing my collection of aprons this year, would love to claim a Jessie Steele apron as mine.
It has to be cute and also has to wash well :)
I liked Jessie on FB.
Function #1 for sure.

I think the 1# things about aprons is their usefulness - those aprons thats look good but also have lots of practical uses including pockets and hidden sections...I just love them!
I have also liked Jessie on FB - love it

#1 Quality? Machine washable!! It seems like a given, but I just don't do hand washing.
Quality is number 1 but a being pretty is a close 2nd.
To be very feminine , have plenty of pocket space and have great all over coverage from the messes of cooking. Thanks for sharing the giveaway.
The main thing is for it to keep me from getting so messy- but who wants to bother with putting on an apron unless it's super cute!!

Liked Jesse on FB. Man thanks for turning me on to aprons & accessories to match my vintage wannabe style.
I love an apron with a pocket and one that has ruffles.

Machine washable!!!
I love how an apron makes me feel. All creative and domestic at the same time! It has to be cute and I LOVE pockets!
I love cute aprons, but it also needs to be washable. Thanks for the contest!
I love that apron! I think the most important quality is for it to hold up to repeated washings.
Absolutely how super cute they are! And you bet I'll be back after I 'like' them on facebook. Love ya, Kalleen!
Too bad the best I could do was 'like' them, not 'love' them. But they are liked (on fb) now nonetheless.
For me, it has to be functional and comfortable to wear so it doesn't get in the way. But these are super cute and that is such a bonus!
I like Jessie Steele on facebook.
Thanks!
I Love to cook, but I hate when my hands get messy. The problem is that I am a very messy cook. I need one that I can clean my hands on all day and wash and wear again the next. The bonus is looking chic while wearing it.;)
Useful pockets are my #1 need. And durability. I get my aprons so dirty...
The most important thing about an apron is that it is durable and won't come apart in my washing machine. Yeah that just happened to me this week. ugh!
ehumphries3@gmail.com
Quality fabric is number 1! It needs to be able to get dirty, washed and worn numerous times and still be able to look nice. It also needs the right type of fabric that will dry my hands and not have beads of water dripping off of it.
I loved what one person said about an apron needing to actually protect you from water and mess, and not just be a thin layer that's going to allow things to soak through to your clothes. But if I had an apron THIS cute.. I'd probably wear it when I made low-mess meals, and wear my not-so-attractive apron when I cooked with oil and things that could stain. ;]

Oh, and of course I had to go like her stuff on facebook. I'll be purchasing an apron for my mom's birthday soon if I don't win one. :D
The cute cut. Seriously. Wanna look like a WOMAN.
General aprony goodness.
I just FANd them on facebook. YAY! Probably would've done it anyway, but this was good motivation.
The important part for me in an apron is to cover the whole chest part.
The number one quality in an apron for me is comfort. Cuteness doesn't hurt either!
I liked Jessie Steele on Facebook.
I love pretty aprons, plus its a bonus if they're machine washable.
kspopcornmama@gmail.com
I suppose it must be washable and still look great afterwards. I really need this cute apron because it would make me look like a cute young thing in the kitchen instead of a granny, plus it is my favorite color combo of black and white and so is my kitchen!
The #1 quality in an apron is style! It could be a dish towel wrapped around your waist otherwise. And Jessie Steel certainly wins in the style department.
