Bridal Shower Towels

This has been without a doubt one of the busiest weeks ever. Sometimes I just wish my life was my own when this happens.

I have a double bridal shower tonight and so I personalized these towels. I used the Accuquilt Go House die.


Judy from "Sew Fun Quilt" and I were talking yesterday....this was a light bulb moment for me.

She was talking about if you have too many stitches with your embroidery machine on towels that they will shrink (bunch) up. Immediately I thought of these that I did for the shower tonight.
Oh my goodness....all that work!!!

So I got another towel and did a rooster on it, washed it, dried it, and yep.....it bunches up. Not that I questioned you Judy but a gal has to see for her self (rather, hope it is not so). I would show you but I used the towel last night and now it is in the wash. You can iron it out, that is a plus but who wants to iron their towels?

That is when I got the idea to do those personalized towels. I am still going to give these towels to them....my whole theme is relying on these towels.

Live and learn....and I like to learn the hard way. Next time my son says that to me I won't get so upset.

The winner of the rooster was posted below. Also Linny, if you are reading this, you are a no reply so I can not send you the table top pattern.
