I'm going to have to start collecting towels

Stacy and I are doing our own mini-swap; one of her knitted scarfs for a couple of my potholders.  THIS is my gorgeous scarf that Stacy said she was all done with and I've been a slacker in the sewing department but I got my end of our swap done.  So Stacy, if you are reading this, I need your mailing address!

Stacy told me to do whatever I liked for her potholders.  She didn't mind color or anything.  And she likes owls (she better!  I hope I didn't get my blogs mixed up!).  I had a cute charm pack that I ordered from Quilt Taffy and the potholders were created.

I totally need to work on lining things up right.  But I digress... I like the potholders and I hope Stacy does too.  But what I REALLY like is the little extra I'm including.  I LOVE it.  It is soooo stinkin' cute!  And I hope Stacy loves it too.

First, the potholder fronts -

The potholder backs -
turn your heads to the left...  :)

And now the little extra I'm adding...
EEKKKKK!  CUTE!!!!
I won a Facebook giveaway from Sharon and my prize was a very cute zippered pouch, CUTE little stork scissors and some jumbo ric-rac.  I thought the pink ric-rac just made the owl towel extra cute.

And here they are all together -


Hence my post title.  I need to start collecting more towels to make for gifts and for myself.  I'm lovin' that owl.  I think I need one for myself.

I'm also thinking that a cute towel and some hand soap would make cute gifts for teachers and others.  And thinking like that... my very good friend from HS birthday is in a couple of weeks.  Plus her mom... maybe they need a couple of towels too.

Stacy - I hope you like them!!

Enjoy your day!
Jen

  3. OH MY GOSH! That owl towel is SO cute. Thank you! Yes, I am the one who loves owls.

    I love the potholders, too! They are so pretty and colorful, and I love the tiny owls and other critters. They are too pretty to use! Maybe they will be for display only to brighten up my kitchen :o)

    Gosh, I feel as though I need to knit you a second scarf or something. I hope you like it when you see it in real life. I mailed it yesterday and they said it will be there late next week.
