Tea Towel Tour V

The best gals embroidered towelThe tea towel has been going on since September this year.  I was not able to actually participate this go around because I knew I would be to busy. 

I did instead agree to be a group leader.  It was fun as always and the gallery is fantastic.    My group was winding down and I was a bit sad that I did no participate in the swap, well sulky is more like it.  A couple of days ago I got the best package in the mail.  The ladies in my swap all decided to send a towel around for me.  They are fantastic!!  I thought I would share their lovely embroidery.  Did you by any chance notice they all have bees in the theme.  It really is the best!

I only know two people that did the embroidery so far.  I do hope they will let me know which ones they did so that way I can give them credit. 


Hope you are all enjoying your last week before Christmas.

Enjoy the Vintage Aunt Martha pattern.

This is a Vogart 141 pattern.  I like the little daisy flowers.  I also have the heart apron pattern and the regular apron pattern.  I really should make these some time to use around the holidays.

Clark's Book No. 180

Coats & Clark's Book No. 180-2

This is a sweet pattern by Coats and Clark Book No. 180.  I just love embroidering flowers.  I am also providing the pages that tell you how to embroider it.  I just love following old patterns it makes me think outside of the box on stitches that I might not have used before.
Coats & Clark's Book No. 180 Page 16-17

Have fun and Happy Thanksgiving.
