I purchased a new waffle weave bathrobe that was missing the belt for a quarter at a thrift store. I was not my size but I had other plans for it. I made these two towels today. One is my Valentine's Day gift to myself, Queen of Hearts. Some of you may know that my real name is Valentine. The other is in honor of my furbaby Tigger. He is a tiger stripe but I couldn't find the right thread so I had to make a calico. He don't care, he doesn't know that he is a cat anyway. LOL

I love the these. Even more knowing how much you did them for. I love the kitty design. Wish you remembered. Wow 2 for a quarter I will have to brag about your bargain. Tell hubby I need a out about day.

I love them. The cats are fantastic. Where did you get the design for the cat border? I also like your Heart T. You have done a great job for these 25 cent towels. Thanks for sharing with us.
