Doing a tone on tone embroidery (heirloom/lacey) design makes a stunning towel. I usually keep one or two pairs on hand (tied with satin ribbon) just in case I need a hostess gift. It goes over very well
Me, too, only I get mine at Sam's Club. And because I don't have an embroidery machine, I applique something on them or put a ribbon of cute fabric on them. froggyintexas
