Well, I've been chatting with Debbie, our Mamma Hen about this for over a month now and timing never seemed right. Plus I've been headspinning busy, lol. So we are hosting a swap, first time for me in a long time: to earn a badge or two.
I've been practicing the art of natural dyeing with plants and flowers and thought it would be fun to host a tea towel swap creating a tea towel or two from your creative talent abilities! It won't be just limited to plant dyeing of course. If you want to slow stitch, embroider, potato ink print even crochet or knit a lovely tea towel to swap, you could easily earn a badge in these categories plus have fun.
Signed up are:
Debbie
Dianna
Wanda Sue
Denise
Heather
Karen
So one creative tea towel per partner. Signs ups now until the 20th of May, partners assigned the 24th and May 30th as the deadline to send. ( Debbie, does this sound good and if any changes need to be made, please feel free)
Partners are
Debbie and Wanda Sue
Heather and Dianna
Denise and Karen |

Yes, Dianna it all sounds great. I love tea towels and never seem to have enough.
So please sign me up. Here is an example of a painted towel and an embroidered towel.
Thank you Dianna.

Here is a sample of Slow Stitching and Potato Ink which is so cool. There are just so many ways for you to decorate a tea towel.

| As long as this is just one partner sign me up. I don't think my towel will earn a badge, but it'll be fun :) |

Aww, Julie, I know what you mean! The yard/ garden work literally has control of my lifes decisions whereI go and when and how long!! I do love the warmer weather but not the fast growing grass and weeds!
I'm sorry we won't see you this swap hon. Be well and healthy please! |

| Dianna - your tea towel is on it's way. If the USPS does it's part, you should get it Monday. |

Karen, I received your pkg last night but didn't get to open until today. Love them! Thanks so much. They are so pretty.
I hope you all don't mind but both Karen and I have been busy and decided to change up our swap a little.
