Dixie says that when it comes to a standard sized tea towel, they do vary slightly between brands. Be sure to make sure it is large enough to cover your front. She also suggest that you look for tea towels with attractive borders as they give the illusion you have used more than one fabric and make the design pop.
Here’s What You Need:
- 3/8 yard of cotton fabric for the straps.
- Cut 2 side straps – 27 x 3.5 inches (68.5x9cm)
- -Cut 1 neck strap – 21 x 3.5 inches (53x 9cm)
- If you really want to save time you could substitute some 1 inch (2.5cm)Â ribbon.
As you can see from the above photos, Dixie has created some lovely looks including a wonderful holiday version. She has an excellent written and photo tutorial on her site with printable instructions. You can get all the details here.
