Nice and easy...


It has been a while since I have done any of these...tea towels with a little applique to jazz them up, so quick and easy and such a nice little gift....on this little one I found a nice simple design, can't go past a stripped tea towel....I used heat and bond (light) to attach the design and then appliqued, using button hole stitch...quick and easy and I think very effective......these can also be done on the sewing machine....so next time you are down town pick up a few tea towels and this is the best way of using up all those scarps of fabric we always have lying around...have a great day...

  3. Really great, Peg - I nearly took myself to Ikea on Tuesday to check out their teatowels for the same purpose - yes, great little gifts for when a little thought is needed!
