Like
most of you, I love Pottery Barn. The people behind that store have inspiring
and fresh ideas that always amaze.
So when I spied these adorable towels, I
knew they would be perfect for my toile guest bedroom and bathroom.
They
were expensive but I thought, I could make those and maybe add some detailing
to my towels in there. First
I cut some black ticking into 18 by 8 inch rectangles.
Serged
and hemmed the towels.
Next,
I added our initials to the towels with my wonderful embroidery machine.
I
then cut 4 inch by 40 inch strips, making sure the ticking is consistent with
the run of the towels. Folding
right sides together, I stitched along the long end of the strips.
Using
this amazing tool
I turned the strips inside out, do you see the little hook? You hook the end of the strip.
You pull the end through the inside of the fabric
I then pressed the strips.
Next,
I whipped out my ruffling foot for my machine, and setting it to six, ruffled
the strips.
Attached
the strips to towels.
And
voila!!!
How
pretty and wouldn’t you say perfect for this room?
One
down, three to go and a shower curtain.
This
look is so pretty, I want to use it other places…
