While camping at the lake, I was happy to sit overlooking the water and work on this embroidered towel. I used a pattern from Sublime Stitching called Camp Out! I followed Jody's example and added ric rac across the bottom ~ only I think hers came out much better. Does my ric rac look a little too large??
Anyway, it was a fun design to work, and I'm definitely going to make some more.
How cute! Your rick-rack's perfect.
ReplyDeleteLove it! And no, the rick-rack is great!
ReplyDeleteAdorable - the rick rack makes it! Love the colours Deb.
ReplyDeleteI love it! What a great idea.
ReplyDeleteThe towel is so cute I may have to make some for my girlfriend for christmas.
ReplyDeleteI love that pattern! We are former campers but my sister still camps and that would make a wonderful gift for her. I'm going to keep an eye out for the pattern. I'm so glad you shared the info. And your towel looks great!
ReplyDeleteNah....the ric rac is perfect....
ReplyDeleteDeb--I've been meaning to ask where you found that twill that looks like measuring tape? You wrapped it around the apron pkg...and I have been looking for more of it ever since.

The rick-rack looks great! Don't you just love Sublime Stitching? I've been stitching tea towels with patterns from the book. I 'plan' to do some for Christmas gifts this year, but so far they have all ended up in my own kitchen!
ReplyDeleteI agree with all the other posts - I think it's perfect. And I, too, will be making one for my camping friends!
