Her comment is: I know that I would love to make these because they are so cute. My Grandson’s significant others would love these and I do believe that I would have to make them in the red and yellow as they would really pop in both of their white kitchens. I am impressed with all the items listed today to make as they are sensational.

I will go with the red and yellow. Thanks for the great giveaway.

I would go with the green and teal. Love them together.
Cynthia
Still Team Green & Teal! Love those colors.
Gail S
The red and yellow remind me of spring flowers and sunshine.
Irene L Shank
I just got a new machine which I am still learning to operate. The pot holders look like something I can navigate! I like all the colors but especially the red and yellow. I try to catch Nancy’s show as regularly as possible. Thanks for the useful information
Amelia
The red and yellow. I love anything red and the yellow is a nice pop of color.
Susan
Love the fabrics and would choose the green & teal for the No-Hassle Napkin as these colors appeal to me. The napkin project is a great introductory project for a nonsewer to appreciate what it is like to work with fabric to get creations.
CLOVIS
Red and yellow looks nice.
Barb Kaup
I really like the red and yellow–looks homey and cozy.
Mary Silverman
green and teal
