Welcome Warm Weather with Pretty Tea Towels
These Make Lovely Gifts, Too!
We can’t imagine using these towels to dry dishes, as they’re way too pretty. But, they’ll be lovely accents for your kitchen any time of the year, especially during spring and summer.
Line a breakfast tray or drape one over a basket of rolls. Or simply use them as pretty kitchen decor. The towels make wonderful gifts, too, any time of the year.
Start with purchased tea towels (or cotton dish towels) then applique flowers from scraps. A bit of easy hand embroidery adds detail along the edges, while crocheted lace finishes them beautifully. Sewn-on store-bought lace will be lovely, too.
If you don’t crochet look for pretty new or vintage lace to use instead. Or, add rick rack or a pretty ruffle to finish the ends.
This beautiful project comes from A Spoonful of Sugar.
