Thanks Kay for the inspiration. I have really "dressed" this towel up! LOL I have cut the very bottom with my rotary blanket cutter blade ( so much easier then doing it by hand & perfectly placed holes) then did a blanket stitch by hand a taut but not to tight then I went & crocheted a white single stitch with a red single stitch on top for the EXTRA! I did the ruffle with the gathered gingerbread fabric but thought I could do more so I added the green rick rack to finish it off. You don't think it's over kill do you? The adorable gingerbread design is from Sew Fine
