Embroidery Towels


I love it when I can get my little boy involved in doing whatever craft I'm working on. I've tried my hand at embroidery lately and have made a few towels. On previous towels however, I've used a pattern bought from a store. This time, I let my little boy draw a simple picture and write the words. He drew it on a regular piece of paper, and I traced it on to the towel with fabric chalk pencils. I had to reconfigure the spacing a little so that it was centered, but really he was the one to "design." He felt really special. I think it turned out cuter and much less expensive than the store options.
