Because it amused me to do so.
Dish towel - $1 for 2 at the Dollar Store
Pattern - found on Google Images, printed out on my home computer/printer, along with some other stuff I was printing out anyway
Transfer paper - bought for next to nothing in a pack of sewing stuff at thrift store
Embroidery Floss - from box full I got when mom died
Worked while - sitting in front of a movie I wanted to watch anyway
Dish towel with personality - priceless
