I bought these towels months ago - with the intentions of embroidering on them. I did their names a while ago and am now just getting to the rest of it. Originally I was going to embroider animals on them (similar to what you see at Pottery Barn) but changed my mind today. I think they turned out really cute. My mom got a new machine this week and this was our first project on it. Not too bad for the first trial run.
