I used some heavy weight cotton from Ikea for the background, Sandi Henderson’s Farmers Market for the appliques, and finished them off with some embroidered details.
Lisa these are wonderful, I never would have thought to buy fabric to make tea towels. They are stunning and would make a gorgeous gift if you could bear to part with them Linda
Sooo LOVELY, Lisa! What a pretty way to dress up “ordinary” kitchen towels…these are very cheerful. And making up a few would make a fun spring/house-warming gift. Thanks for the wonderful idea! Happy Week :o) ((HUGS))
