#1 Super Easy & Fast Make - A Dish Towel Tute

Who'd have thought a dish towel tute would be my most popular post of 2015?!!!  You loved it, no you went CRAZY for it making it not only my #1 post of 2015 but one of my most popular posts of all time.  Did you make any dish towels yet?  I did, I made lots and gave them away and made more, kept them and use them every day - and that's the best endorsement I can give them.
