Dish towels, designs from julia's needle designs all except the girl sewing. I don't remember where it came from.

Thanks

Wow! You nailed that project! Stitching on that thin of fabric always makes me crazy so I'm a little jealous of your embroidery skills!

I make my own towels from a cotton material. The flour sack towels, especially the ones from India are too thin to embroidry on. You can use a thin cutaway on the back and it helps to stabilize the work. Just cut around the design and you cannot even see it. A 100% cotton material, cut to size and hemmed works great and dries great too!! Marietta

Thanks for the info. You are right. The flour sack towels I get around here are way to thin to work on.

Very nice! I like all of them! I do think that the girl sewing might have come from SICK but if not, they have one very similar to this one. I have collected from them and even purchased from them and (head down in shame) have never sewn out a single design of theirs. This set would make a wonderful Christmas gift!!!!!

They look wonderful and I love this vintage style. I have this sewing girl from Artistic designs (complete set was a freebie at OPW) and also from a blog.
Greetings, Bettina

What do you use as a stabilizer? I'm always a little afraid that with these light weight cotton towels if the stitching it will tear the towel apart. The first years I was doing embroidery I had some that just wrecked the towel 'cuz the stitching was gone over too many times.Thanks for answers.
