Been looking at these towel toppers on utube as i found a pile of these pot holders BUT*******I don't like to use the full(whole) towel****So i am thinking**(oh that hurt)How do i cover up the sewing so you won't see where i cut the towel in half **I first sewed narrow hem on the back side of the towel then pulled towel over that sewing **as you can see the brown one is two wide(the sewing) So i tried again**Not bad this time:):)What do you think???Thanks for LQQKING!!Hugs Carolyn

They look great as always. Love the Friends on them

Thanks i think my friends will love them too hugs

I love them Carolyn.... I wondered about not using the whole towel...then you can make 2 out of it... looks good when you double stitch them. I wondered about using the serger on them and doing a roll him at the top of them then sewing them onto the potholder. You would know best though. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing. :)

Grand idea i must try that too hugs

Very nice tea towels. When I used half of the towel. I topped the top with binding tape then sewed onto the topper. Worked well. Thank you for sharing. Happy Stitching

Your friendship towels look great. I also love youtube and get lots of ideas there

These are great, it's a double goodie, what with the nice pot holder for the top if you need to hold something hot and a towel at the bottom for wiping. Well done, love Chris

Thanks for your kind words Chris hugs

You have a bunch of good ideas. Now which will you go for? I have some like this with coordinating bias tape. Anything you do will look great I am sure./Lillian

Thanks Lillian for your words they mean a lot to me hugs

They look great as they are Carolyn, if you want to cover the stitching , how about a matching strip of material sewn over the top to cover it.. Rick rack braid a good suggestion, or wide bias, or ribbon sewn towards a centre bow or knot. Sandra.

excellent ideas thank-you **i might just try them hugs

i think they look nice as they are but if you don't like seeing the stitching how about a covering it with a coordinating color of Rick Rack--that is my "go to" trim for perking up or covering up!!

Thanks Sonja hugs

I don't think you would even have to sew a small hem, just gather the cut edge and stitch it down onto the potholder. Then flip the towel over the seam and stitch it again, encasing the raw edge and cutting down on the bulk the hem would add. But however you do it they look very nice.

Thanks Queen of hearts hugs

Yet another innovative idea......these look great and in a pinch can still be used for a hot pot.......

yes that's true thanks

A little more work but you could cut the potholder in half and sandwich towel in between. It looks good the way it is though. They are very pretty! I have some potholders like that also that I got to make scissors holders out of. Haven't made them yet, so you gave me another good idea. Hugs, gail
