....... that Shez is the queen of the tea towels....
I loved getting one of my own from her for my birthday and decided to make up some myself...
... these are for my birthday love stash hosted by Wendy....
8 little hand towels hanging on a rail....
It must be 20 years or so since I have done buttonholes.... so I pulled out this little gadget from my box...
... in my child clothes making days we drew lines and went backwards and forwards fiddling around...
... all I did was put the button in the back of the gadget...
... and put foot to pedal....
... amazing.....
.... now I can be the buttonhole queen....
Fido is not part of my birthday stash... but he would be perfect...
I made this shop sample.... my first stuffie animal.... I love it that Quilters Angel trusts me with new things... isn't he so cute??? Already trained too....
Righto, Gotto Go..... a couple of deadlines are looming....
I think you will be giving shez some serious competition for that title!
ReplyDeletethey look so pretty all in a row.
Button hole and tea towel queen?
I have the same foot for my Janome. So quick and easy!
Button holes are so easy now with those attachments but I still always do a practice one like I was taught at school.
ReplyDeleteI used to crochet the tea towel tops but have taken to the sewn ones now too. So much quicker and very pretty.
Fido is tres cute.
The kingdom can have 2 queens... one in the south and one in the north! Love them all in a row! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd FiDo is a winner for sure! :)
Love the hand towels. Fido is so cute. Hugs,xx.
ReplyDeleteI think that you will give Shez a run for her money....great work all round.

Those towels are very handy and yours are gorgeous. Gotta love a foot that knows just the right size for your buttons.
ReplyDeleteFido is super cute. Love those colours together.
You can never have enough of these tea towels, so pretty!!! your doggie is cute, hello Fido!!!
ReplyDeleteYour towels are lovely. Someone is going to be very lucky to receive one of them. I agree with Deb R, you can never have enough. Nola
ReplyDeleteLike Sharon, it is the button holes putting me off making some of these too! I still draw a line and go backwards and forwards fiddling around!!

ReplyDeleteAll those tea towels almost look like cafe curtains hanging there! Great work Fiona. I've got one of those gadgets too. Don't they make button holes so easy!
ReplyDeleteShez seems to have started a craze, these towels are popping up all over the place, lol. Love your little dog too, much nicer than the real thing

ReplyDeleteCute puppy Fiona and your hand towels are great - how easy is that buttonhole
ReplyDeleteJust love fido
ReplyDeletelove your towel toppers, I might need some of these for my new kitchen. If my new kitchen ever happens.
ReplyDeleteI love my buttonhole foot too - its a marvel!! Love Fido. I really do like the look of the fabric & towel combo rather than the crochet ones - more modern I think.
ReplyDeleteI think the tea towels are too nice to use. I think they should be left looking lovely an the rail!
ReplyDeleteFido looks rather delightful, too.
The towels are so cute, and gadgets are so helpful with these jobs. I am LOVING fido and already trained WOW the perfect dog!
ReplyDeleteI love how buttonholes are easier too these days! Great tea towels Fiona!
ReplyDeleteLove that row of towels and Fido looks fantastic. I still carefully do my buttonholes the old way too. Have the gadget but don't like it as much. Might be the machine though.
ReplyDeleteWonderful tea towels and it might be a close competition as to who is now queen of tea towels ;-) Your little gadget made the buttonhole a breeze , yeah ! Fido is adorable , just too cute!!!
ReplyDeleteGore at tea towels and Fido is adorable. Great to catch up with what you have been making.
