Apron Workshop
at the Daniel Boone Homestead
Sunday, October 26, 2025 • 1:00-3:00pm

The Daniel Boone Homestead Associates will be offering a fall apron workshop in October. Join historian Becky Hughes and The Hopewell Quilters for a beginner sewing workshop on Aprons. Participants will learn the history of women’s aprons and make their very own project to take home just in time for the
holiday baking season. No prior sewing experience is required – great for beginners! Participants are asked to bring the following supplies: 1.5 yards cotton fabric and 3 yards ribbon. Sewing machines, thread, needles etc. will be provided.
Registration is required for the workshop and a form can be obtained by emailing us at
thedanielboonehomestead@gmail.com. The registration fee is $20 for Daniel Boone Homestead Associate Members and $25 for Non-members. The workshop will take place in the Wayside Lodge at the Daniel Boone Homestead.

The Boone House, constructed in three stages throughout the eighteenth century, is a 10-room stone structure fully furnished to the period and situated on 579 acres of rolling countryside. The Daniel Boone Homestead is located halfway between Reading and Pottstown, one mile north of Rt. 422 near Baumstown. The Homestead is owned by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission (PHMC), and daily
historic operations are run by the Daniel Boone Homestead Associates, a local, nonprofit organization.
