for mother's day i stitched up these patchwork towels for my mom. i found the white towels at target & used some of a vintage picnic mini charm pack for the squares. to create the patchwork on each towel i sewed a strip of squares with the mini charms, folded over the raw edges & then top stitched to the towel.
and of course i made a coordinating tag - it went together quickly using taylored expressions stamps & craft dies. i used the build a tag 1 die set for the tag base & the heart was die cut with a die from the stitched heart stacklets set. inside the die cut heart i stamped the cross stitch heart design & the sentiment using stamps from the stitch by stitch stamp set.
