I hope mine turn out looking that nice. I'm doing that for my nephew for Christmas....It's been AGES since I did any applique'ing and even then it was with a different machine than I have now.

Great idea....I like them for myself and my dh

They all look great!

those are really neat guys! I love how festive they are!

Question on the towels: May sound like a dummy but......Does this require a sewing machine? How do you make the letters, do you need a stencil? I want to make these for my nieces. Thanks!

How I did mine ~ I printed letters that I liked out of Microsoft word (then you can choose whatever font you want), and then cut them out of the fabric. I did sew mine on with my machine using a really close zig zag stitch. You can, however, use a iron on type material such as wonder under, or some other fusible interfacing. IMO I find that the letters don't stay on very well on after lots of washings with the iron on only, and sometimes (depending on the interfacing you choose) the letters can feel stiff. If you don't have a sewing machine - you can use the iron on stuff and then so a simple stitch by hand around the border to help hold it on. I have done this also.
