Embroidered Tea Towels

After knitting a few Christmas gifts, I remembered my love of embroidery and made a few embroidered Tea Towels as gifts.

I decided for the Tea Towels for my sister-in-law, I’d make one with coffee of it because of her love of coffee.

I found the cutest patterns for a coffee cup at Wildolive.blogspot.com.

The same person also made some cupcake patterns, and of course I had to make a couple cupcake tea towels. 

For my mother-in-law I decided simply put an S on the towels, but I wanted a delicate and pretty S, I now want to make some for myself.

One thing that I loved about these projects was that I realized I’m not the only person that likes to do old-fashioned crafts. It makes me feel a bit more normal when other people have the same hobbies as I do. Notice I said a bit because I will admit I will never be “normal,” nor do I want to be.
