Bev, didn't you know? She's been at it since fifth grade, just she stopped to do all the embroidery, she ever put on Cute! -lol-I am shamefully, in a teasing mood.
Knowing Carolyn, she could do it in her sleep. The Cutie's a workaholic!

First, its amazing you remembered after that long ago!-lol- Just kidding you, friend. This is totally different, from anything I've seen on towels and looks like its open and a goody inside! The color reminds me of a doily my mom had. Good work!

Very unique design. Wonderful idea for the open part on the basket for the wash cloth or whatever extra gift you want to include. Wonderful job getting it attached to the towel.

Very nice !!! My mother made these many yrs ago. She does not speak or read English, she counted and copied the stitches. That is how I learned also but we used very fine DMC thread. One Christmas everyone got crochet hankies from me. I learned to read the instructions when I was in 10th grade from a friends mother.
