I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE THINKING!!!

and.......no, I didn't forget about my towels.....has always been in the back of my mind....and you were thinking I had......oh......but noooooo......

So how about some more teapots????



Penquins......



Frogs.....



Actually, I started ironing the pieces on in the afternoon yesterday.

Around 5:00 I started blanket stitching them waiting for my husband to come home...thinking that I might get part way through one and then I can slowly work on these when I don't feel like doing something big.....

Six o'clock rolls around and the man is still not home....by seven he is home and I had all but the penquins done.

While making cupcakes for the funeral (yes, I changed my mind.....I actually made them...so beat me shoot me!!)....I finished the penquins. So much for projects when I didn't feel like doing much else!!

Barb they are adorable. That is exactly how I would make them. In bunches and then applique them whenever I sat down to sew

LOL... I can name a blogger who would love each of these. Teapots for Pat/Ooglebloops, Penguins for Pat (alittleofthis....) and frogs for Tonya.

So I am wondering what you are going to do with all the towels.

They are so cute! I would never be able to actually use them, though! LOL!

Really cute towels. You certainly put your time to good use while waiting for hubby. Do you still have your houseguest or has he moved on now?

Kaye said...

The towels look great, are they your own design or from a book?

Jocelyn said...

Soooooooo cute, Barb, and you got them done so quickly. I have a close friend who is a penguin nut, so am going to email your blog to her. Thanks.

Those are just so cute, the penquins are my favs. It is nice at the end of the day to just sit on the couch, watch tv and hand sew. When I finish a quilt it is one of my favorite parts....the sitting down part! lol

I love your little towels. Those frogs... so cute!
