I embroidered the designs onto some of the feed sack towels I won a while back from Lori. I made these for my daughter who loves everything "beachy." I added some batiks strips of fabric to dress up the towels too. My future daughter-in-law saw the towels as I was working on them and she wants me to make her some too.


Hey, you have to check out this blog. Kim shared it on her blog and that is how I found it. The blog is called 365 days of Free Motion Quilting Filler Designs. Leah has put short videos on her blog to show you how she does the designs. If you need ideas check it out. And she does this all on her regular sewing machine. I think I might even be inspired to give some of the designs a try.
With Passion,
Carrie P.

I have those printed out - but promised myself I wouldn't start them until after my Christmas things are done. Yours look great. Clever to do them on tea towels and I like how you used the sashing. Thanks so much for the quilting link - I looked at it briefly and it looks terrific. It's just the help I need.
Thanks again for the good tips, Carrie!
Love the towels, much prettier than those old Aunt Martha patterns.

Carrie the towels turned out wonderful!
Very cute towels. I saw that quilting site somewhere and bookmarked. Now to find some time to make quilt sandwiches and play.
Oh Carrie those turned out so cute - love the fabric strips! I'm thrilled you liked my designs, sweetie - thanks!
Always a fun visit! I've had that 365 Days of Quilting on by Side bar for a month now...guess I should have posted it better! You have some catching up to do! LOL
Wonderful stitcheries! I had seen them before but didn't realize they were free patterns! Thanks!
These are adorable, Carrie! I love the batik borders on the towels, too! Thanks for the machine quilting link, too!
Cheers!
Your towels look great! What a lovely gift.
Cute! I can see why they both like them! Have a great day.
These towels look great, no wonder they're in demand. I've been thrilled about finding the blog for the machine quilting. Thanks for making sure we know about it.
These are fantastic Carrie! I love themed embroidery like this and this have got to be the cutest things ever! I am going to have to share this link with my mom as I think she can make these patterns into some cute aprons too!
HUGS!
