    Default Fast Christmas gift to make - Kitchen hand towel for stove

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]501593[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]501594[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]501595[/ATTACH]You can make one of these in a few hours, minimum directions, notions, and fabric requirements on my hand drawn pattern. flower optional to place. Extra 8" of ribbon, if you want to place a bow on the top, where you can add your tag.
    on the front to show front vs back.

    Important to place on the fold for shoulders and front, and you
    will have to cut out two of the pattern pieces for each one you want to make. Leave the neck and waist open until you have inserted each half of the towel into the front and back sides.

    ​Those would be great for a quick hostess gift for holiday parties that come up unexpectantly.

    Awe, how cute! I've seen these put on baby clothes hanger and hang from cabinet or drawer handle also, more like decoration than for use. They're just too pretty to mess up! LOL!

    I have made several of these, well mine is just a little different but basically the same. I am posting a pic and will post more later. Joy

    Default My Little Kitchen Towels.

    Here are a few more I have made, they do make great Christmas gifts and also you can sell them around this time of year. Thanks for looking, Joy

    My grandmother had a similar one of these when I was a kid! I haven't seen one since, thanks for the memories!
