I thought it was amazing that I something I made for my son's birthday two years ago was showcased on the Emblibrary 'Stitcher's Showcase' yesterday - the day before his birthday this year. Hehehe!

He really is a good cleaner, but he never used them for cleaning up coffee spills - he was too proud of my work for that. Hehehe!
by nhsmith55 10 Aug 2012
My husband would use them for cleaning up coffee, too!

What a coincidence about the day! Surely no coincidence that they showcased these, though, that's some nice work, and such fun designs. Glad he's enjoying them, too. I like the colors, the coffee looks real. Congratulations! Hugs, Marji

I am impressed! I love these designs.I am a true coffee-holic, winter, summer and all in between! I am rarely seen without a cup of coffee or a latte. The older I get, the more the caffine keeps me going. My lifetime best friend would love these also. I just went to E.L. and put this set in my basket!!!! Thanks for sharing these towels you did for your son! Linda
