Small Finishes

Had to stop and clean the sewing room this weekend before it drove me nuts.   But in doing so I unearthed a couple of small UFO's that I've now finished off.


First up was putting the binding onto this potholder made from a UFO block that I don't even remember where or when I got it.   

Second UFO finished up is this hanging kitchen towel.  The solid green is a waffle-weave fabric that I'd found as a remnant at Joann's and is the weight of ready made kitchen towels.  The top and strap of the towel were made from a UFO piece of 30's prints and WOW squares.   And nope, I don't remember what the rest of them were used on....  The top is 6" finished wide.  The button is one of the oodles I'd bought 6 or so months ago when Joann's did a major clearance of buttons.

Both of these will go in my gift stash.

I've got more of the green waffle-weave fabric, probably enough for 3 more towels, but need to either pull more UFO's for the tops or need to piece something for them. 


And finally, I was at Ross Dress-For-Less over the weekend and saw this hand towel that I loved.   It will be my spring kitchen towel.   Something I really need to remember with the stresses of all that is going on at work presently and the house hunt on top of that.

Gratitudes:

1. Praying friends

2. Supportive family
