Five Days of Homemade Christmas Gifts: Embroidered Tea Towels
I use my tea towels to cover bread while it’s rising, to tuck around fresh-baked rolls to keep them warm, and to throw over food and pitchers to keep bugs off.
If you’ve never tried the craft of hand embroidery, it’s simple to learn. Embroidery is probably the easiest handiwork I have ever learned. You can purchase patterns to iron on and use as a guide, or you can draw your own pattern with a washable fabric pencil, which will disappear with water, after you have finished your design. As I said, my daughters (10, 12, & 14) picked it up very quickly, using their own designs to create handmade gifts. Tutorials are easy to find online, like this one, and just as easy to find in your local craft store.
Enjoy this timeless art and pass the gift along to a special person who will appreciate your time and effort.
