I recently made these towels for my dear friend Madelyn's birthday. I had not done too much embroidery before but I found it to be a very enjoyable and easy project to do. I used a light table to transfer my drawings onto the fabric. I found that a water soluble fabric pen works well to draw with. For the wording i picked a font on the computer that I liked and then printed the words out on paper in the size that I needed. I used the light table to transfer the words onto the fabric as well. Once all the images were on the fabric I used various embroidery floss colors to go over the pictures. 
I used the stem stitch to embroider almost everything! I did use the chain stitch on the rain drops and the eggs. For the words I used the satin or damask stitch. Since I did nine towels, i decided to do three towels with orange, three with blue and three with yellow words. I also divided the themes into three groupings. Three were weather themed, three were seasons of the family, three were simply various sized birds together. It was a great experience and enjoyed every minute of it! Hope you all enjoy.
