This souvenir tea towel must have been bought on holiday and tucked neatly in a drawer to be saved for a special occasion that never came. I'm so happy to have turned it into a beautiful, sweet cushion in colours of peppermint, coal and lemon and measures 51 x 25cm. Maybe it was just too good to be a humble tea towel and the original owner it was destined for better things......
