As they used to say on Monty Python... and now for something completely different! I decided I wanted to make a dish towel and have just finished it today and would like to know what you think. Would you hang it in your kitchen? It's linen (I think or at least linen like fabric) and I put a decorative buttonhole stitch on three edges in blue over the rolled hem and the bottom side has a decorative pulled thread design. The teapot I embroidered in matching blue DMC thread.
Well, maybe it is just as well if you don't want to hang it in your kitchen. As you can see from the penny in the photo, it might be on the small side! lol This is my first foray into the world of needlework in 1/10 scale for miniature dollhouses. Next I'll make another to match with a coffeepot embroidered on it instead and I'll have a pair. I learned a lot on this first small project so I think the next one will go easier and quicker.
My mother always told me that people would turn my needlework over to see the back - so in case you wanted to do that, here it is. I think that this miniature needlework may be as great an obsession as crazy quilting!

I'm sure the second will be easier!
