Congratulations on hand-sewing a pair of beautiful and functional napkins! Don’t be afraid to use them, they are meant to be used and loved! Be proud and celebrate what YOU made every time you sit down to a meal. Well done!
I hope you enjoyed the peace and fulfillment of hand sewing and remembered what your hands can do.
