Everyday Pot Holder

April 15, 2012 By Spoonful of Sugar - 11 Comments

My supply of Kitchen Pot Holders (Hot Pads) is growing! This latest one was made with some quilting cotton and waffle cotton left over from other kitchen projects. I used two layers of cotton batting and one layer of Insul-Brite in both the base and pocket of the Pot Holder. 

A gathered polka dot frill and some commercial bias trim finished it off. It has already been put to good use in the kitchen.

It is a good utilitarian design for a pot holder. Now I am heading back to my sewing room to work some more on my fancier appliquéd versions.

    I love that you used polka dot for the frill! I probably would not have thought to do that…at this point in ‘beginner land’. Love the colors you chose, think I will makes some too!
