How about the ten minute tablerunner. Easy, fast and they turn out wonderful.

Fat Quarter Scarf - 3 fat quarters that you like together. Cut all FQ's to the length of the shortest one. From each FQ cut two six inch strips. Make two sets of three strips sewing end to end and not having the fabrics in the same order. Right sides together sew the two sets together along the long edge of one side. On the long edge of the other side start 4-6" from the top and end 2-3" from the bottom. Turn right side out and press. Attach the two ends together (this will be easy using pins) and sew to make a large circle. Hand sew or use invisible thread to sew up the opening. Done! Place around your neck and then cross over and place around your neck again. Easy, peasy, 30 minute project!

Oops, sorry that is coming out sideways, it's not like that on my computer!

I use the Warm Tater Batting made especially for microwaves without the scrim or resins.

I just had my kitchen remodeled and noticed that my oven mits are a disgrace, and so are most of my pot holders. I have some I hang on the wall as deco, but kitchen stuff is sure on my list of gifts this year. Place Mats, table toppers, runners, oven mitts, and pot holders are always welcome gifts

When I make Tater Bags, I use 2 layers of flannel instead of batting. Been using mine for 5 or 6 years now with no problems.

Thank you everyone! I really appreciate all your ideas and info!

Do you have a hard time sewing through so many thicknesses?

Do you have a hard time sewing through the thicknesses on the hanging kitchen towels?

American Girl doll clothes is a big seller. Embroidered tea towels are too.
