Yesterday I wanted to make some kitchen hand towels that you can hang on your oven ​or anyplace really that has a handle 

I had made them before and I had made a pattern but I couldn’t find it. 

It’s wasn’t hard making another one 


I made this one out of cardboard. Hopefully it will be easier to find. 

As you can see I’ve got two tea towels with chickens on them  

They match the rugs I bought for the kitchen 

These are for the farm house 


I needed help choosing the fabrics 

So I took lots of photos and asked my friend, who lives in Queensland, 

To help. 

We both liked the greens. 

I wanted to use fat quarters that had some pieces cut out. 

I didn’t want to use large pieces of fabric. Those can be used for bigger projects 

The fabrics we chose came from the fabrics that I got from the lovely old lady. 

She had cut bits of them for whatever it was she was making 


I’m cutting the tea towels in half as they’re long. So o needed four topper’s 

In my head I knew each towel needed to pieces of fabric 

So I traced two pieces each. 

But my brain told me to fold the fabric 

So I ended up with eight toppers 

I did sew those as well. I’ll use them to make Christmas presents. 

I do like to start early. 

Hubby arrived home around five. 

He has taken control of the remote so we are currently watching a football show 

Yep. Back to normal.
