Towel Toppers IV

The other half from yesterday's post:
Just a simple light-blue gingham one.
Towel topper pattern found here.
With a red rose!

That might be it for the towel toppers for a while. :-)

Towel Toppers III

It's impossible to make only one of something.
(Sort of like potato chips, but eating vs. making.)
Here is another towel topper:
This time I used an old dish towel.
See here's the other side:
(Waste not, want not, right?) 
Towel topper pattern found here.
Using a rose instead of a button.
When I get on a kick, I get on a kick!
Tomorrow I will show you what I did with the other half of this dish towel.
(The side sans cute embroidery.)

Towel Toppers I

My latest obsession:

TOWEL TOPPERS!!!

With a rose enclosure instead of a button:
 Made from a microfiber towel purchased at the Dollar Store, cut in half.
Two dish towels = $1 USD!
Medium blue and light blue, both with red roses!
Made easy with the "Sharp Crochet Hook",
a favorite crochet tool!
I love working with gingham; 
the squares make it so easy to make straight cuts and line stitches up evenly.
Pattern found here.

One is here:

 and one here:

Don't for a second think this is the end of these....
It's just the beginning!
(But you knew that didn't you?)
