Being in the kitchen, I feel like is the most popular place in the house, especially with having kids. We start our day with breakfast, then two hours later is morning snack, then we have lunch, followed by an afternoon snack a few hours later and once the evening hits we have dinner and possibly dessert. I feel like I'm constantly going into the pantry, wiping messy mouths and cleaning sticky hands. Where am I getting at? I need more towels! We go through towels like there's no tomorrow and I'm so excited to try out the Berry Patch Towel Kit from Blueberry Backroads; if I can pull it off I will be thrilled.
The Berry Patch Towel Kit comes with four white tea towels and the instructions needed to make the designs. You can make strawberries, raspberries, cherries and blueberries for a fun berry-themed collection. When you look at the towels it'll make you think of rustic farmland with a touch of simplicity. Summertime is the perfect time for berry picking whether it's in your backyard or you drive to a strawberry patch. Make smoothies, and berry pie and stitch up some berry towels for the kitchen.
Using a fabric pen you'll need to trace out the pattern of your choosing onto the tea towel and complete the embroidery designs using a backstitch, satin stitch, lazy daisies and French knots. Embroidery floss colors are suggested, but you can easily combine colors to add dimension to your design. The fine detail of each of the designs will make you look like a pro.
Now I said I need more towels in the kitchen, but of course I wouldn't use these fancy tea towels to wipe sticky hands. These towels will be perfect for breakfast parties with girlfriends while drinking tea and eating coffee cake. Placement of beautiful towels like this makes a world of a difference, too. If you're not intending to actually use the towels, putting them out to display is another option. Regardless, you'll love the outcome.
