My Grandma has been making these no slip dish towels for awhile now –I have a whole collection! She actually crochets some (but that is a skill she hasn’t passed down to her granddaughter…yet)
Anyways…I wanted to show you guys how BRILLIANT they are for awhile…and then the other day at Walmart I snagged some dish towels from the Pioneer woman line and the tutorial was born!
I don’t know if you have seen the Pioneer woman stuff….but I BIG HuGE PUFFY heart the whole lot of it! You need a dish towel and a pot holder for this–
I decided to go with this color combo! Open up the dish towel and run a big loose stitch across the middle (don’t back stitch)
You will pull the thread on the back to gather it to the width of the pot holder.
Lay the pot holder matching center of it to the center of the gathers. Pin and sew in place.
The pot holder I bought came with a little tab to hang it up….I bent the pot holder in half and pushed the tab over to the other side to see where to place to the button
and sew it on!
Now you can just button it on the stove handle or fridge handle and you won’t have to constantly be picking it up off the floor or my favorite it is when they just toss it on top of the stove. Gee. Thanks.
I actually put one in my kids bathroom for sanity purposes!
You can pair it with a levi apron
Do you spy the dish towel in my fun wedding gift basket?

I have made these kitchen towels for quite a while now, but I make my own “hot pad”. I use 2-8 inch squares of matching cotton fabric. When the hot pad is finished, don’t forget the loop, I quilt from corner to corner and around all four sides. Presto! Your hot pad is ready to attach to your towel. Everyone loves them!

I love these towels, my mother-in-law use to make me vintage hanging towels but I’ve never tried myself. I no longer have a sewing machine or I would be making them for Christmas presents! Thanks for sharing ♥️

Very cute idea! Makes for putting a gift together easy! I like your idea for little ones in the bathroom, and also this is simple enough to teach a new sewer!
Thank you and God bless🌸
