It is no news that I love dropcloth...
who doesn't?
I am in love with the texture, the color, the versatility, the "messy look" and the price!
I have used it for many projects (even before I had a blog), and naturally, I have leftover pieces too small for a big project, but not too small for a small project!
I really liked this tea towel I saw on Debbiedoo's blog.
It looks simple, fun and pretty.
Now, this is my version...slightly different because I don't have a stencil, I don't have a tea towel...and my motto is "make the most of what you got"!
I wanted to transfer an Italian recipe of my favorite dessert...Tiramisu'.
This project is pretty much self explanatory.
(the one I used is called Viner Hand ITC)
Cut the dropcloth the size you want the towel to be, and sew the sides.
(carbon copy paper works too)
I went over the letters one more time, to make it a little darker.
tip: do not hurry yourself while doing this project...if you mess up, there is no going back! Slow and steady hand.
Cost of this project FREE
Stay Frugal,
Daniela

Another fabulous freebie. I love it!
Now, why didn't I think of that?! I love how that turned out and how easy it was. Of course, you're right about needing a slow and steady hand for this. Can't wait to see your dessert next!
Great, great job, Daniela. You did a wonderful job on that! xo Diana
So cute! I love how this turned out! Way to use what you have.
You go girlllllllll!~ I love it. Who would think a sharpie? Very clever:) I am so glad you joined in on the party. Enjoy!!~

New follower! I love Tiramisu! Great idea also!

Such a clever idea! A set of them would make a great gift, too :)
Truly a great frugal idea! This is so cute and i must say...I'm pretty excited to learn how to make Tiramisu'
FIrst of all, I love the name of your blog! :D Great copycat. I love the tea towel (I just love them in my own kitchen). I am sure that Debbie was thrilled that you copied her. I want to copy most of her projects! (If I only had the time).

That's so clever! I love drop cloths too! That must be one of my future projects, b/c I also have lots of left overs!

That looks great. Oh, yummy tiramisu.
Hi Daniela: This is such a great towel transfer project--I definitely want to give this a try! Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today and leaving such a nice comment--I really appreciate it very much!
Well aren't you the smart one! Thanks for the idea of how to do something like this! I would never have thought it up on my own!
Fabulous idea and so easy! Thank you so much for sharing. I'm going to make some of these for gifts. :)
Love this , What font did you use ?
the font is Viner Hand ITC
Hi, Daniela.....I just found your blog today and while perusing your awesome projects I ran across this one. I'm wondering what weight your drop cloths are....mine is fairly heavy and I can't imagine it working very well as a towel.
Really enjoyed looking around your blog!
