new towels

Remember last week - when I said I'd ordered fabric
for a little project?

It's a happy fabric - maybe you've heard of it?

California Dreamin' by the fabulous Jenean Morrison!

 We got rid of the dishwasher a few weeks ago;

it's always leaked, but the leaking had gotten worse

and I didn't want my pretty new floor getting messed up.

 And besides, 

we practically washed the dishes before loading them anyways...

 I figured If I was going to have towels on my counter all the time,

they ought to be pretty.

 At first,

I was just going to buy new towels.

But where would be the fun in that?

Plus I figured,

to get kitchen towels of any quality,

I'd have to pay a good bit for them....

If I was going to pay good money for something,

might as well be something I really love, huh?

And the best part?

Actually, there's 2 best parts:

I used birthday money (thanks, Mom & Gramma!)

and

I have leftover fabric :-)
