The Best Flour Sack Towels - May - Lily of the Valley

I spent embroidering over the weekend, one of my favorite past times.  I worked on this flower of the month flour sack towel.  I chose pink lily of the valley because it is not commonly known you can get this color and I love the smell of them.  I took roughly an afternoon from start to finish to do this towel, I thought it would be fun to show the towel in process.  You can order one for $7 -

The Best Flour Sack Towels - Kitchen Kitsch

If this doesn't take you back to when you were a kid, then I guess I am dating myself. I only use flour sack towels to dry my dishes. It's all I have used since I was a child and I guess I figured when I had to buy towels when I moved out on my own - it was habit to use what my mother and her mother always used. Flour sack towels are very absorbant and leave little to no lint on glassware.

Growing up, all of our flour sack towels were embroderied in the corner with some type of kitchsy motif. I had been mulling these over in my head for years to do them just to add some life to drying the dishes. This set is dedicated to Kitchenware.

I have decided that everyone needs to get in on this trend, so you will find more posts about these embroidered towels on my website - I will even have a specific link to view all of them. If anyone is interested in getting a set, cost is $49 for seven -

November brings Thanksgiving and what a great way to commemorate this holiday than with something decorative and useful - the flour sack towel!

Obviously large napkins, but the idea is simple and inexpensive - plus they pull double duty because you can use them as towels after the holiday.
