I worked on some more pot holders as gifts this year as aprons were not in much demand among my siblings.
I love the soft muted tones of the fabric in the center of this set. The 5 inches squares were given to me by a quilter friend. I added 100% cotton black borders around the square and the back is solid black.
The stuffing/batting is 100% cotton.
The top stitching is around the center square and well as very close to the edge to close the space where I turned them good side out.
The loop was placed in the center of the square.
I paired an olive green/khaki green organic print with an olive green solid on the back.
This is a 8.5 inch square which brings it down to 8 inches when completed.
The stuffing is 100% cotton.
I used my quarter circle template again this time for this set.
I just pinned the paper to the corner and then sewed following the curved edge. Repeated for all 4 corners.
There was just enough burgundy fabric to complete this set of flat potholders. I have enough floral to make another set.
This was left over fabric from the shirt smock apron I made earlier.
The stuffing is 100% cotton.
I chose the half circle template for the top stitching on this set.
It was nice to use up some smaller pieces of fabric.
All wrapped up for Christmas gifts.
Those are so pretty Sylvia. I’d almost be afraid to use them (I’m a messy cook). Your sisters are lucky to get these . Hope you had a lovely Christmas.
