As you may know, the Weisman Art Museum Store (at the University of Minnesota), carries Mary Jane's Handmade aprons. The U of M is Mary Jane's alma mater, and they have written an awesome piece about her and our little online apron empire.

Read the article here, and stop by the Weisman to see our aprons (or check out our online store and shop, yo!)

Renegade was a big success, thanks to Jennifer (Mary Jane's daughter-in-law) and Lilly (MJ's granddaughter) and their friends. Jen put together an awesome booth and the ladies even passed out cookies at the booth (we are TOTALLY stealing that idea if we get into No Coast this year!).

Now that we're back, Mary Jane is focused on making tons of fantastic new aprons so you will all have lots to choose from for holiday gifts this year. I've restocked the Etsy shop with tons of goodies -- including aprons made from some of the fabric we picked up in Italy. We already sold one of the Italian beauties and got the following lovely note from Cathleen in Illinois:

"I loved my other apron so much, I need to add another!! Your aprons are creative, fun, and beautiful.  I love that this material comes from Italy...also one of my favorite places to visit.  Thanks for the lovely work!"

So, check out the store and stock up on aprons. If you're in Minneapolis, you can also see our wares at the Weisman Art Museum Store.

Ciao!
