Everything About It..

I love this bright yellow color...
I think it's called Mimosa.
I love a linen hand towel.
I love that there is a loop for hanging
(though, in this bathroom there no hook to hang it on).
I love that linen dries quickly.
I love that this is something I made.


I put in a 1.5 inch hem all around.   And, mitered corners....

I made a second towel.
For the kitchen...a dishtowel.

This towel has narrower hems.
And, I put the hanging loop across a corner.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I did replace the monkey wrench (block 6)
with a different brown print.

I am hoping to get the last 3 blocks done today so that I can start working on that big 8 inch hst border.

Is This Fun??

Gosh.  What a day Naomi Janome and I had yesterday!  I did as much ripping out as I did sewing.  Trying to not be too anal about color/print/square placement, but sometimes...and much too often yesterday...I had to change things around.  

But, I had a total of 5 blocks done!  I was very happy about that!
Here are the three I did yesterday...
block 3

block 4
block 5

After my bit of frustration, I decided that I am going to do just 9 of these blocks.  

Today, I did just one more block...


ohdear...I just now noticed that the monkey wrench blocks in this row (blocks 4 and 6) are different color, but of the same fabric. Darn! Well, I will decide what to do about that tomorrow.    

I made something for myself today.  The lighting is not good for photo-taking right now, so will get some photos tomorrow.

Have a good night!
