i know - not the most exciting of projects i've shared. but i am actually quite proud of my napkins. the first napkin i made is on the left - it's just a simple single-sided one. next i moved on up to double-sided. and finally ended my napkin making adventure with one that is double-sided and has a rick-rack edge - fancy, huh. so where have i been learning these sewing skills - at this online class here.

I think it is utterly awesome that your creativity extends way beyond paper. I love your color combination and the rick rack border on the last.

as well you should be! They're great. It's fun to see the fabric you chose go very well with everything else ( your cards and blog )
(thank you for your super sweet comment, it means so much to me, especially coming from you )

Love your fabric choices! Isn't it fun to learn a new skill, especially one that's both beautiful and useful?
I don't get a lot of traffic on my humble little blog, but when I look at my stats, BY FAR the one post with the most hits is a post where I made cloth napkins for my kids. (People visit via Google searches on how to make cloth napkins for children). It makes me laugh - like, what's different about making cloth napkins for kids other than that maybe they're a bit smaller? But I take it as a nice thing that people want to make and use cloth napkins more and more over paper.

I love cloth napkins and use mine all the time! People always ask about them and when I tell them I made 'em they can't believe it. But once you know how they're so easy!
