I like to have cloth napkins on hand and ever since we moved to the farmhouse my supply of cloth napkins has dwindled down to about four. Not sure what happened to them, unless I left them at the old house. Anyway, I made several from kitchen or food themed scraps.
Teacups, teapots and pitchers:
Chocolate covered strawberries:
China plates:
Rhonda reminded me in THIS POST that its a good idea to put a stack of cloth napkins and dish towels in a basket near the paper towels as a reminder to use them instead of the paper towels, if possible:
I'm also still working on the Summer One a Day 9 Patch Challenge. I did get behind, but not too badly. Today is the 20th of July, which means I should have 50 done. I have 39, so if I do a couple a day I will be caught up in no time.

Your momma's purse is gorgeous. I hope she uses it.
Love the print for the napkins. They look so pretty in the basket. That's a great idea.
Love the quilted bag, is it hard to put in a magnetic snap? I haven't investigated putting one in but like to have some kind of way to close a bag, a strap w/velcro works but sometimes the velcro gets nasty in the wash. Love your napkins, I should try using some as we go through alot of paper ones. Maybe you could get caught up on the 9 patch challenge on Friday Night Sew In??
Have a great day.
I love the bag, and Rhonda's idea about a napkin basket is a good one!
Everything looks wonderful, as usual! I love the napkin idea.
pretty napkins, Debbie
isn't it funny how some good things seem to disappear
but the junk stuff seems to multiply?
Beautiful! Will you be selling any napkins in your Etsy store? I'm still using your purses. They are very durable, and I don't forget my purse anymore because it hangs on my arm.
Did you maybe use the napkins as padding in boxes that haven't yet been unpacked?
Your new ones are very pretty, and the basket next to the paper towels is a great idea.
Beautiful bag and napkins. If your mama doesn't use the bag, you can send it my way, lol
I think your napkins are so pretty... now I want to run out and buy some kitchen themed fabric to make some for me! :o) Maybe I can be frugal enough to wait for some good finds! I love your mom's bag... I'll bet she will LOVE it!
The chocolate covered strawberry napkins are oh so pretty. I have a basket on hand that I can use to put mine in right next to the paper towels. Your mom will look so nice carrying the bag you made her with beautiful colors in it. Good choice. Now, if she can just tear herself away from the black bag she has been carrying. I'm bad about using a bag for to long so we'll see how she does. :)
