    Your work is gorgeous. Just hoping the receiver understands how very special this is.

    Love your towels, I made a few last year for Christmas, but my Janome 9500 is in the hospital so I can't make anything like that this yer. I finally learned how to put the apostrophe on last year, something I want to do if learn how to embrodiery more than the bit I have done. It is fun! I use the same kind of towels you do. I love to make burp cloths using embrodiery. Love the coffee towel.

    I used two layers of solvy on the back and none on the front...the nap is very low on these towels, so I didn't think I needed any on the front.
