Liz fromSimple Simon & Co. shows how she made these fun nautical kitchen towels with squids and whales. Her tutorial is part of the Home Sewn series hosted by Susan from Living with Punks. She used applique and embroidery to put the nautical animals on a set of brightly colored dishtowels. This would also be super cute for a child’s bedroom, with the squid and whale appliqued on to pillow covers. Go to Simple Simon & Co. for the tutorial.
