No, I'm Not Airing Dirty Laundry!


I've finished the embroidery on 11 dishtowels. 
I like to keep sets of dishtowels, crocheted dishcloths and potholders on hand for Christmas, wedding, bridal shower and/or birthday gifts.  Sometimes I make fabric grocery bags to use as the gift bag. 




 


The pile of dishtowels is finished. Here are the crocheted dishcloths to go with them. Now on to make some potholders to complete the sets. 

And later on this evening I'll work on catching up on my redwork blocks for row 2 of my Mother Goose quiltie. 


Hand stitching?

  7. I really like your embroidery. I have some embroidered dish towels that I inherited, but I am hesitant to use them. They need to be hemmed which is easy enough, but I am still not sure that I should use them. Although it is a shame that they are languishing in a box. Yours are very pretty. I love that you complement them with dish cloths and pot holders.

  9. That pig is so darn cute! What pattern do you use to make your dish cloths (knitting or crochet?)
