If you can see the bottom left- the big purple splotch… :cry: My normal klutzy nature reared its ugly head and so I figured some embellishment was in order- hence the all over paint splotches. I wasn’t super thrilled with the results. But I sent it anyway- a tea towel is a tea towel, after all…

But to make up for my slip-up, I made a second towel and I like this one SO MUCH! :star_struck: I may need to make one for myself, but in my kitchen colors of black red and gray!

These are fabulous! I love the ombré effect on the first one, and like how you printed over the painted bottle on the second one.

They’re both great! I think the “splotches” fit the topsy turvy world of Alice wonderfully!

I like the splotches on the first one, it definitely makes a plain tea towel more interesting!

The designs are so pretty! I’m not sure if you said over in the gallery or not, what technique did you use to make them?
