I'm thinking it's safe to post this now that Christmas presents have probably been opened in Virginia. Heather has long given me kitchen towels, which I love because I think of her every time I use them. So I decided it was high time to return the favor.

backed with two layers of harem cloth, stitched and quilted with floss ...
