CLeaNinG Up...

And making some ordinary dish towels into Christmas gifts. You can spiffy up plain tea towels by adding a festive border... then simply wrap one around a jar of lollies/nuts ... & give it away. So easy & yet so nice!
I appliquéd a few last year...

The edged idea was shown in Patchwork & Stitching Magazine...Vol 12 Issue 8
I'm joining in with Narelle & her elves over HERE... And if you click on over, you can see what others have been made this month.
Thanks Narelle for the monthly motivation.
