I raided my scrap box for these potholders. I made 8 of them in all for friends and coworkers.
These were very much inspired by the
potholder Erin made recently. Except hers has lovely quilting and mine do not. I used two layers of cotton batting with another layer of heavy canvas in the middle, and I worried that quilting such a fat sandwich could be disastrous. So I just edge-stitched these after turning them out and left it at that.
I also did two pairs which I quilted crossways then added binding which I finished by hand.
And that's the end of my roundup. All simple projects, but fun to make. I want to show you a couple of the gifts I received too, so I'll be back with more on that this afternoon.
