What do you think, is it possible?
I found this towel last week at Anthropologie.
Anthropologie is not a store that I frequent as there is not one close by. So, when an opportunity presented itself I took it
In the above picture you can tell it is pretty, but let me show you a close up.
The details are embroidered.
Love.
Now, it was a splurge. But I figure I am better splurging on a $24 towel than a lot of other things that could get me in trouble! Plus, it is hanging on my stove and just makes me smile!
I am sucker for embroidery, always have been.
But lately I have been seeing more of this technique of embroidering the details on a patterned fabric.
It has me inspired to maybe try something myself.
Oh, and since I am gushing on towels, check out this lobster
and Shrimp one. Seriously? The lobster and shrimp are crocheted!
Love. Love. Love.
I imagine you might start to see some embroidery showing up on my Pinterest page.
Have a great night!
Great towels Laura! I love a beautiful towel on my oven too.
Have a great day.

Oh my goodness, that first towel is SO cute! I think it’s definitely worth the money, you’ll be looking at it and enjoying it everyday. Buy things for your home that make you happy!

Oooh I love those towels, they are adorable!! I have been looking for a cute on like this to hang in the kitchen.
Have a wonderful day!

Oh I love these! Especially the lobster. My husband is from the east coast and would get a big kick out of that. I’d be afraid to use it…too pretty!
Love the shrimp towel but $34 is too steep for my budget.
These towels are really great and I think I fell in love with them, too. Thank you for showing them! Greetings from Germany! Have a nice day. 🙂
I just bought that first towel three days ago! Almost yelled at my husband when he grabbed it to dry the dishes. It’s so sweet and adorable!
It is so possible to be in love with a towel. I do that regularly and they are all from Anthropologie!
I love it.
I have many hand embroidered bed, bath, kitchen and table linens. Many of the pieces I have are so beautiful and finely crafted. In my mother’s time and before, young girls were taught needlework. My dad learned crocheting and tatting from his Gramma. He showed me too. I think some of that would still be enjoyable for girls( and boys) if interested even now in this too fast world.
Machine stitching and embroidery just is not the same. There is a human touch like nothing else with hand crafted items. Thanks for your lovely example, something to enjoy.

The embroidery is great. It’s all about filling spaces with what you love.
