The person getting this pot holder will also get a snazzy trivet:
After experimenting with that quilted pot holder I made two more.
I think my brain was not working because I did the binding on all three at the same time and I smacked myself for not adding a tab to the first one, then did the binding on the second one and forgot again! Luckily, I remembered by the third one. My one other mistake was that I wanted both side of the hand pot holder to be the white Christmas pattern but I accidentally cut the pieces out wrong so now the back looks like this:
Oh well. I think it looks good anyways and hopefully the person receiving them will not care.My post is super late to the Sew N Tell, but there are some really cool things posted, be sure to check them out.
These are lovely! Very festive.
ReplyDeleteI wanted to reply to your comment regarding hoops, but your Blogger settings are set so that I can't reply to you....did you know that? Anyways, just to let you know here, I bought my hoops online at etsy at dockside designs. They only cost about $2 each with shipping! I bought 3" and 4" ones, shown with the snowflakes, and also some larger ones, up to 10". Hope that helps! Happy stitching!
Lovely potholders!
