Anyone interested in an artful teatowel swap? I thought that might be a fun winter project....handmade teatowels that we each embellish...by embroidering, or quilting, adding trims, etc....any idea that you can come up with.! If you are interested, sign up here and give us your swapping ideas (lets keep our actual teatowel ideas a secret) and then we will make a plan for swapping based on how many are interested.
ok, here is the deal.....you will make one set of 2 teatowells for another girl on the swap.....sign up here and I will pick someone for you....and you will not have the same person who has you...it will be sort of like our secret santa swap.....but teatowels instead. Size and style are your choice...but be creative!!! deadline is March 20th
Sign ups close January 20th
So, let me know if you are interested....So far...

I like to vote towards random TeaTowels and anything after 15th cool with me. I love to work on tea towels, and as long as i have plenty of time, the reciever/partner will love it.

Oh, good...I can do this Thanks Bev!
Since I'm traveling and in this apartment for a while I thought I'd do something really dramatic. 
Here's the fabric I'm using...Free Spirit-Chocolate Lollipop collection...it's a chocolate background with pastel to medium pink, aqua, the green reminds me of the Chartreuse Green from the 1950's..kind of a blend of lime-olive. Sounds aweful but it's really pretty. The dot fabric has a deeper pink and a true Olive green.

Here's the companion fabric:

Yes, I am in on this. but I am going to buy the towels. I can't find any linen that suites me. I can't wait to find out who I have. I have a couple of good ideas.
