Kitchen dish towel

Lately I have been making sets of wedding dish towels that you can see HERE and HERE. I enjoy making them and coming up with different color and trim combinations, but I was looking to do something a little different. It was my boyfriend's mom's birthday a couple of weeks ago (by the way, she is AMAZING), so I decided that it was the perfect occasion to try my hand at a new kitchen dish towel. I found the silverware image at The Graphics Fairy and printed it on to a section of a flour sac dish towel. Next I sewed (ok, my mom sewed) that piece to a full flour sack dish towel. I finished it off with a strip of burlap topped with a burlap bow. I really liked how it turned out. It was clean and simple with a country vintage appeal.

  2. Don't you just love the Graphics Fairy! These are really cute. I almost talked my hubbie into buying a fabulous looooooooong burlap pillow in Seibel's (in Homewood) today. Almost. I am seeing burlap used in the cutest ways lately, and I love the way you put the bow and graphics together, Lauren. Nice!
