We chose to use a waffle material for our DIY Turkish Terry Cloth washcloths and dish towels because we think it has a nice clean look to it. If only you could feel these towels! They are luxurious and such great quality. They are sure to be our favorite dish towels.

The measurements we used for our washcloths are 14''x 14'' and 17''x 31'' for the dish towel.
Put right sides together and sew a 1/2'' seam along edges leaving a 3'' opening.
Trim corners and flip right side out.
Press (make sure you have the towel opened all the way on the seam).
Pin your 3'' opening together and topstitch around the perimeter using a 1/4'' seam allowance.
We chose to tack our towels so the two layers do not separate.
Follow these instructions for your dish towel and washcloths.
Pin it!!
