Making festive hand embroidered dish towels celebrate every season. Do you remember these hand towels I made for some friends last Christmas?
I placed an embroidery hoop around the letters and embroidered the word using a backstitch. I wanted the word to be thick, so I used 4 strands of the embroidery floss.
The fun thing would be to have one for every holiday and season. I had planned on making one for Halloween with the word Boo, but never got around to it. Since the flour sac towels are so large, I think I will just turn the towel around and add the Boo to the other side. Then you could use the same hand towel for both seasons.
I have this hanging on the handle of my oven door and have tied a ribbon around it, I don't have to hang it back up anytime the kids get near the towel. When the kids dry their hands on it, it actually stays in place!
