Two little birdies, sitting in a tree....

I made an applique tea towel just like this one last year as part of a birthday present for my sister in law Tracy, and it was really hard to give it away! (You can check her blog 'The Pickled Owl' out here). So I have finally got around to making one for myself and a spare, because if you're making one you might as well make two.  It was so easy using the iron on visoline and blanket stich on my sewing machine.

 

I got the tea towels from Freedom, they always have a big bin of tea towels for only $2 each and there's heaps to choose from too. The fabric I used in the applique was out of my stash.

And while I was at it I thought I'ld try an owly pot holder too, which turned out looking cute but a bit psychedelic due to all the different patterned fabrics put together.

Cheers, hope it's been a good weekend Jenni xx
