Hand stitched tea towel.

On the Down To Earth Forum we are having another fun swap. This one was for tea towels or hand towels, which could be hand made or purchased if the participant didn't have the time or skill to make one. I chose to embroider a vintage linen tea towel, using a vintage transfer that I had.  It is all worked in back stitch.  The lettering is a bit wonky; do you think it looks more like Classes than Glasses?

I think the glasses below helps to clear any confusion :)

Thanks Jane. The recipient of my tea towel has just posted on the forum to say she has received it and is delighted with it! Nice to know when your work is appreciated.
