Default Pillowcase dresses, tea towels for a play kitchen and more baskets

I've been making pillowcase dresses for my DGD. These went together very quickly and I got the pillowcases for 10 cents each.

I also made more baskets. One is made with 5 inch squares and the other I made with 3" squares. I really like the smaller one.

The tea towels are for my DGD's play kitchen. I took a towel and cut it into 4 pieces, then embroidered on each of them. I used machine embroideries from Julia's Needle. I ruined the first one so that's why there are only 3. I also made a couple of dish cloths and potholders for her.

Thanks for looking.
Shirley

How adorable are they?!! I can't believe you got the pillowcases for just 10 cents each. They are beautiful! She is sure to have fun with all her new goodies.

The dresses are adorable, the baskets are cute also. Maybe a tutorial on the baskets would be nice. Thanks for sharing.

Here is a link to the basket tutorial - it's from Phannie1. Her original post was Hoppy Easter baskets.
