Halloween Hand Towels

Hey There… I had a frightfully fun time putting this project together.

Towel1
 Supplies:  Orange Hand Towels (I picked up mine for $2.78 apiece on clearance at Target).  Avery T-Shirt Transfer paper, Fabri Tac, Canvas, Ribbon, Sewing Machine with a 'Denim" needle, an iron and your favorite Halloween Clip Art.  I used some free images from The Graphics Fairy.

I found four vertical graphics I really liked and printed them out at 4 x 6.

Towel3
 Print your image onto the the T-Shirt Transfer paper.  Follow the directions on the Avery package to transfer it to the canvas. Cut it out, leaving a 1/2 inch or so border around the picture.

 Pin it to the towel for placement and for sewing.

Towel6
 Sew the image onto the towel.

Towel7
To get a frayed look, gently pull the loose threads from the edges.

Towel8
Here's what the towels looked like with the spooky pictures.

Next step– use the Fabri Tac to glue the ribbon trim down.

  1. I have a bit of insomnia tonight (this morning), so I’m traveling through blog land and I’m loving these towels! What a great idea, and fairly simple to do. Great job!

  2. These are darling. I don’t even own a sewing machine, so if it requires stitching…it is over my head! I love the pumpkin!
    Thanks for visiting and following! I’ll return the favor:)

  3. Those are the cutest hand towels; didn’t know about T-shirt transfer paper! I am afraid I couldn’t use those — WAY too cute! I am signing up to be a Google follower. Joni
