This is The Purple Project #46! Only six more to go til the end of my one year Purple Project challenge to myself to make one purple craft project each week. How am I doing folks?
This week’s project is a very simple one (though I hate sewing!) and inexpensive. I bought these dish towels at Walmart for only $1 each! They looked so pretty that it occurred to me that I could sew two or three of them together and make a table runner. Unfortunately I only bought two of them and this table really needs three in order for the runner to hang over the way I like. Some tables might need several of them in order to hang over the edge in a more flowing way. I have to go back and get another one, but I think it looks pretty good. What do you think?
They are the same pattern as the dish towels I already have and the same pattern as the pot holders and decoration I have in my kitchen too. Ties it in quite nicely.
Have a GRAPE Day!
I like that!! I still need to try the shoe one.
Just LMK when you do and post a link to it here. I’d love to see how yours comes out.
Now that is gorgeous, JoJo, and you’d never know it was made up of dish towels! Although I can knit or crochet anything, I can barely sew a seam. May have to try it, though. It’s really pretty and fits your decor so well! (or should that be “”"sew well”"”)
So glad you like it. I hate to sew too, but it really was very easy to do!
