Heart Pot Holder

February 12, 2013 By Spoonful of Sugar - 5 Comments

Update: Due to popular demand, this old tutorial has been revised and is now available as a pattern in our Store:

Heart Pot Holder Pattern now includes professionally drawn templates and loads of step by step instructions for a small charge to reflect the extra work in formatting the pattern. You can find it HERE.

Our Heart Pot Holder design is one of our all time favourites and we have been blown away by all the wonderful comments we have had, and by the number of times the tutorial has been shared and pinned. We even had a sweet email from Verna Mosquera (who designed the pretty Pirouette fabric that we used in our tutorial). Thank you so much – our readers are the best!

Even though it has only been a few days since we posted the tutorial, we have been thrilled to see some lovely versions of our design being posted on the web. It really makes our day 🙂

Check out these pretty pot holders  (links below photo). The design looks so different with each fabric combination.

This is our original Valentine pot holder that we made back in 2011 which inspired our tutorial.

    So cute! Thanks for sharing! =) And I love that Eiffel Tower cookie cutter, I just find it hard to find a cookie recipe that is easy to use with this shape – did you know that there is also a Statue of Liberty cookie cutter?
