Crochet Borders: Tea Towels w/ Rachael

Add a little cottage-core charm to your kitchen with a crochet border on your favorite tea towel! This project also makes a great housewarming or holiday gift. 

In this class, students will learn how to embroider a blanket stitch along the edge of their towel, and then use a crochet shell pattern to create a simple but charming border. 

A tip to make this project even more special - purchase 3/4 yds toweling at Sew To Speak, hem your edges on your machine at home, and then add a cute crochet border in class. Have a tea towel you already love? That works, too! 

Ages 18+
