Well that happens, I'm not the sharpest pencil in the box all the time.
The towels we got did not have any loops where to hang them. I thought that since the towels were inherited from this EL person that I could sew the loops from the EL-band. That way we would remember easier where we got those towels from.
First I found out where is the middle of the towels by folding them to half and marked the fold.
I attached the loops with pins and hand sew the loop on.
That didn't take long. And now we have four new kitchen towels to use.
What a clever use of the ribbon (I'm pretty sure I would not have realized it was EL instead of 73)
ReplyDeleteHa, ha I would have thought it was a 73 also ;) So cool that you turned the ribbon into hooks!
ReplyDeleteWell I should have since I knew who we inherited :D
DeleteIsn't it fun to use cute ribbon for towel loops? I buy our towels in the states whenever we're visiting there and for some reason they usually don't have loops on them, so I'm forever saving little scraps of fabric for that.
ReplyDeleteAnd by the way, I would have totally thought that said 73 too :)
That's cool idea to use a super colourful loop on a plain towel. Nice idea, although I've tried to learn not to save the smallest scraps of fabric since I have no room for them.
DeleteIs EL the initials of the person who left these things? If so, I understand why you thought you should have "got" it right aay! But it sure looks a lot like 73, too!
ReplyDeleteIn a way... EL passed away some years ago and now her husband passed away, so we did get those things from her but not directly.
DeleteIt does, doesn't it? I keep seeing that 73 there, even though I know it's not.
