I haven't seen a tea towel swap posted in a while, and thought it would be fun to have another one.
I was thinking of a "Dreaming of Spring" theme.
I guess how we will work this one is that as you sign up, I will pair you up.:)
Let's say sign ups close next Thursday.
Please let me know if you are machine or hand embroidery so that we can make sure to pair you up with someone of the same. :)
Have fun!!
hugs
Jessie

Diana,
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!
I did get them- they are wonderful. I emailed you- but I'm not sure if my email always gets to where it is suppose to. Your package is on it's way-not as nice as the ones you made for me! Wonderful work you did!
xoxo--Lori

Lori (Crafter) Did you ever get your tea towels?
I don't remember seeing any thing come across my e-mail.
But I have been having trouble with it.
Just wondered.

That is so pretty Lizabeth! I love the printed material too! It reminds me of the 50s aprons.;)
Has anyone else finished or gotten theirs? We are still hoping to see pics!
I sent Tammy's this passed week. Should be there anytime now. :D

Interestingly, I actually used serger thread for the embroidery. I like the cotton look of that thread, though it has strength and "bleachability" since it is polyester. Also the neat thing is that it comes in so many colors!

I've been remiss in reporting that I've already gotten my towel from my partner. Lizabeth sent the cutest flour sack, embellished with a pink cotton hem and a little redwork Sunbonnet Sue baking. I love it! I keep telling myself I'm going to learn how to post pictures here but so far haven't had the time. I also must confess that I'm still working on Lizabeth's towel (where does that time go?).
All hope is not lost, I may still figure out the picture process yet (yea, right!)
