\"Mary<\/a>
Mary C’s Embroidered Tea Towel Quilt<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The other day, at Sew Day, I saw Mary’s GREAT quilt and it made me think of some of the tea towels and such that I have that are nicely embroidered.<\/p>\n

Yes, we had the Boxy Bag class<\/a>, but there was plenty of time to work on other projects. I started cutting out the All Rolled Up Tote<\/a>, as mentioned.<\/p>\n

Mary C, a great member of the group, brought a quilt she had made with embroidered tea towels. I have tea towels, pillowcases and a few other things from the matriarchal side of the family. I talked about the parakeet dresser scarf (or similar) in a previous post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mary said that she used a jelly roll of 1930s fabrics. I really like the fabrics she chose and think they are a little different than the Aunt Grace style of 1930s fabrics.<\/p>\n

This is the first quilt that I have really liked that uses tea towels. She backed the embroideries with ShapeFlex after trimming them. We advised her to just quilt around the embroidery designs and not over them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
