That's it - now you are ready to baste, quilt and bind! 

For a coordinating project with this fun table runner, we made some fun Tea Towel kits!


Tea towels are one of my favorite items to give during the holidays!  Handmade gifts are the best gifts in my opinion - and now is the time to start working on them! 

Tea Towel Kit

 I love doing holiday ones because you can give them a little early - and the recipient can enjoy them all through the holiday season!

I hope you enjoyed these fun projects! Be sure to come back next week for our final bundle/project!

Talk to you soon,
