13 Things to Sew from Tea Towels
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!

Hi.
I live in Ireland where crafts hardly exist, but a friend in Ohio sent me your web address which I obviously found. Trouble is that I can’t get up the tutorials. I know that at my age I should be more computer literate, but hey – you can’t be good at everything ! Any advice please ?

Susan,
I’m not sure why the tutorials aren’t loading for you. They’re just links to other websites. The only thing that comes to mind is that they are set up to open in a new window rather than loading in the window that’s already open and viewing Craft Gossip. Are there security settings on your computer preventing newwindows from being opened? Wish I could be more help. –Anne

I can’t seem to get the pyramid purse tutorial either! However I can get the others…
It’s coming up with an error message.
Any chance you could re-load it please? x

It looks as though their site is in the middle of some software updates. That may be causing the problem. If so, I suspect it is just a temporary issue. –Anne

That site has been down for months now, but it looks like the author has finally posted a PDF of the tutorial on her site: http://www.nicolemdesign.com.au/tips/pyramidpurse%20%282%29.pdf.
