Tutorial: Bread Blanket embellished flour sack towels

Amanda from Jedi Craft Girl shares a tutorial for making her Bread Blanket flour sack towels. They’re made from flour sack towels, which you can get inexpensively at the discount store, with a ruffle and fancy trim sewn to the bottom and an applique just above. She designed this one to place over a pan of orange rolls fresh from the oven to keep them warm. The orange applique also happens to perfect for summertime! You can make them for other seasons, too, just by changing out the fabric and the applique design. Go to Jedi Craft Girl for the tute.
