If you are like us, you are probably starting to think about gifts you can make for Christmas. Giving something handmade is really in keeping with the true spirit of Christmas.
A Guest Towel that is trimmed with some pretty fabric and a crocheted edging is the perfect gift for Grandma, a teacher, or a special friend. You can team it with some hand cream or body products. Or you can simply make a pretty guest towel to add some Christmas cheer to your powder room, when you are entertaining over the holidays.
We trimmed out Guest Towel with some pretty Tilda fabric, from the Sweet Christmas range. What we love about this Christmas fabric is that it has a vintage appeal, and could be used throughout the year.
If you would like to make your own, you will need:
- white guest towel
- 2 fat quarters of quilting cotton (Tilda Sweet Christmas)
- white crochet cotton – 3 ply
- size 2.50 mm crochet hook
Thanks to Sew Creative Supplies for supplying the Tilda fabric used in this project.

Thank you for the tutorial! Do you prewash the towel, in case of shrinkage?

I’ve done a similar idea but do a pocket trim on the bottom so both sides of the towel are the same.

I realize this is an old post but has anyone tried the crochet trim? Is sc in each blanket stitch correct? I’m having difficulty with it. Thanks in advance
