Handmade napkins, and do I need a tutorial?

Good morning! Thought I would make a quick post for today before I get too busy and forget about it. I could definately retire if it were possible.

I already have four cloth napkins that we use now and again, which they are getting pretty tired looking. Yes, I think I do need this tutorial because Molly's handmade napkins are beautiful!
I was at Target last week and found these on clearance, so I quickly snapped them up.

Have a great day and see you tomorrow!

I love Target. Those are really pretty napkins. We have used cloth napkins forever and my current batch is getting pretty tired looking too. I'm not sure I would want to go to the trouble of making them if I could find nice ones like yours for a good price!
