Who doesn't like hooded towels? I know as a mom I love them. And if you are a busy mom like me, then this is perfect for you... These are so easy to make! And fast!!
Supplies:
1 - beach (or bath towel)
1 - hand towel
First take your hand towel and cut it in half. I like to fold it and use a pin to mark the middle on each side, mark it and cut it. Set one half aside for another project.
Fold the half of the hand towel in half. making sure the raw edge you just cut is along the top. And pin it together. About 2 1/2" from the top, on the side with the fold, mare a curve. Then cut it.
Next sew that raw edge shut. If you have a serger, I suggest using it. If you are like me and you don't then I would do a straight stitch first. Then go back over that stitch with a zig zag.
Flip it right side out and you've got your hood.
Fold your beach towel in half and mark the middle with a pin.
Fold the hood in half and mark the middle with a pin.
Lay the hood on top of the beach towel, lining up the pins, and pin the hood to the towel.
Using a zig zag stitch, sew the hood to the towel. (Since the hand towel and beach towel had finished edges there is no need to reinforce the stitching)
Voila! You made your very own hooded towel!
