The basics for making this hooded toddler towel can be found at patches.typepad.com. There are alot of hooded towel tutorials online but I chose this one because they showed you how to make a rounded hood and finish off the seams using either a serger or a zig zag stitch. The finished project is very clean and secure. Having the basics for making the hooded towel you are free to embellish as you choose. I appliqued my son's name on the back of the towel and put a strip of Buzz Lightyear fabric across the hood. Since the hooded towel only took half of one hand towel to make the hood I used the other half of the hand towel to make some washcloths. The first is a simple washcloth with a saturn applique and binding. The other is double thickness with and handle that will be great to use for hanging in the tub to dry. When I make one for my other little guy I think I will make a bath mitt putting a simple binding and loop on the edge.
