Tea towels are a great way to add color and personality to your kitchen. And they’re a handy place to dry your hands. But tea towels don’t always have to be used as tea towels. It turns out that a hemmed rectangle of pretty fabric also makes a great starting point for a sewing project. With the edges already finished, much of the work has already been done for you. All it takes is a handful of easy seams to turn a tea towel into a pillow, bag, apron, or more. Intrigued? We’ve rounded up some great tutorials for easy sewing projects you can make starting with a simple tea towel.
Look at all the things you can sew from a tea towel!
