Cocktail Napkins
I wanted to make something for Mitzi and Jeff for their bridal shower and was having a hard time deciding on something. Jen gave me the idea to make cocktail napkins! I had no idea people used cloth cocktail napkins, I’d never seen them before. But I looked them up and they exist. Jen is also a soon to be interior designer and avid entertainer, so I can always trust her ideas. The cocktail napkins made a fitting gift in addition to some beautiful martini glasses off their registry. It was also a nice idea because I did not have to worry about it matching anything they own. I absolutely loved the fabric I found for them, and thought it paired well with the orange polka dot fabric. They were easy to make, just a bit time consuming. I really need to find a good way to cut my fabric straight, maybe I need to research sewing tools and equipment, because that definitely would be a huge help if I could cut pieces that were all the same width and length. Here are the pics!
palak, so glad to see how they came out! They're PERFECT. as far as cutting goes…self healing mat plus a roll cutter (jo-ann's has 'em) plus a metal straight edge/ruler really helps!
