Flour sack Ruffle Dishtowel Tutorial

A few months ago I found this tutorial and had to try it!  I had lots of scrap fabric laying around and wasn't doing anything with it.  I love the monogram on hers, but I skipped that part.  I love the way they turned out!!
It was soooo easy!  I absolutely HATE to make ruffles.  That's why I loved this tutorial.  You simply rip some strips of fabric and slowly fold the fabric as you are sewing it.  That simple! 
I want to start making these for gifts.  I would, however recommend washing the material before you sew it on the flour sack towel.  That way it doesn't go all wonky when you wash the towel. Ha! 

Have a great weekend.  I am going to start out next week with a GIVEAWAY!!
