Hooded Towels

If you are expecting a baby girl gift from me in the near future this is most likely what you are getting. I got one of these at a shower for Macey and to be honest, I was not too excited about it, but came to love it and Tate is still using it (I made one for Claire). I have made these several times and they are pretty simple and easy to make, but this time my sewing machine was just giving me tons of trouble. It is just a hand towel cut in half and a regular size bath towel. Sorry to say that I did not sew the ribbons on the hand towels I actually found them at Target and could not resist, but I will probably try that next time I have to make them. I usually do sew a ribbon across the thick banding anyways, but I think it is cute with several different ribbons. I was not sure how to get the best picture, but here you go.

Aren't these towels so cute! (if I do say so myself)

August Card Club

This month we had to bring 2 gift tags instead of cards. Here are the ones I brought. Nothing to exciting. In the first picture some people got one and some got the other. I used what I had on hand ao of course I never have 12 of anything. These are coasters that I punched hole in and added flowers and tabs. I decided to leave them blank so they could be for any occasion.
