For the New Year, I thought it might be fun to start a series of smaller projects that can be made in a weekend. For the first project, you will be making 1 embroidered dish towel or flour sack for your partner. You can pre-purchase a dish towel or flour sack towel or make your own out of cotton. A typical size for purchased dishtowel is in the 20â€ x 28â€ range. The towel should have some hand embroidery or stitchery on them. Requirements, 4.8 or higher, no recent 1s or 3s. Sign-ups by January 1st, send out by January 31st.

I've appliqued teatowels (that's what we call them downunder:) but never embroidered one so I guess I'll bite the bullet and have a go.
