Blue Print for Disaster? II



I committed to doing this correctly. I want to make a gift for someone. I want to show my 93 year-old Grandmother I actually WAS paying attention when she showed me how to embroider a few years ago. (Although I'm going home this weekend and will need a re-fresher on the french knot).

So I prepped the vintage-looking tea towels I purchased by hand washing them in watered-down laundry soap. I rinsed thoroughly and put in the dryer without any fabric softener/sheets (They will make your towels less absorbent).

Meanwhile, I very carefully cut out my desired designs. . .
