Test stitch - I bought some made face cloths at a flea market with this freebie design in mind. Think this type of designs will make lovely affordable Christmas gifts. The site has some similar designs without the alpha.

very pretty.be sure and wash one of these to see if they hold up. I bought some inexpensive towels once and after washing they were no longer nice

Thank for the advise I will surely test it. The cloths were actually not that cheap they were more expensive than a normal face cloth so I will be disappointed if they do not hold. xx

Good idea to get things at a reasonable price! I didn't know that you could stitch on that kind of fabric. Would you like to share how you stabilized it?

Yes I will test as bevintex advised. The design sticthed out perfectly and I am in the market for the set. :) .I used a heavy tear away at the back with solvy on top.

A SPECIAL bar of soap! My favorite is also a lavender bar. (Not hinting.)
by eleen 07 Jul 2016
Thank you - The bar of soap was given to my daughter as a birthday gift and she did not use yet. I too love to get soap as a gift although Lavender is not my favorite.

Thank you. It was a freebie so I think I only have a, b and c but there is a set with the lavender and also rose stems that I would like to use. I first wanted to see how it stitches out. I really thought about bevintex advice and decided the line the other cloths to make sure there is more stability. I only bought 5 of them.

Thanks - I also want to make some small bags for bath salt or a small soap. I guess it would make a lovely gift for a teacher.

Wonderful idea - and who would not love Lavender! You will make some people very, very happy at Christmas time and they will think of you after using your gifts.
Another idea: kitchen towels go well along with selfmade marmelade or jam or homemade herb vinegar.....
Thanks for sharing - Maria
