So exciting to finish something.
Even if it is something as quick and simple and easy as napkins made from
toweling yardage. Close-ups so you can see the lovely weave of this fabric. It feels so nice and nubby as well as substantial to the touch. Ruby Star Society has a tutorial on how to
make a nice coat out of this stuff, I could see wearing one, this fabric is that nice.
Very pleased with how they turned out. One of the few times I've sewn something recently without first pre-washing, and thankfully ironing the turned up edges wasn't as smelly as other unwashed fabrics. Maybe the toweling yardage is produced with less of the fabric treatments that quilting cottons are made with?

Great news! New napkins always make me feel like a great housewife. Did you use the serger? Or a special foot to finish the hem?
They were a big hit on the table, we're so used to the worn-out ones. Didn't use the serger or special foot, as it was rather ravely toweling fabric, but maybe next time.
