Pot Holder

April 10, 2012 By Spoonful of Sugar - 30 Comments

My latest project as part of my kitchen re-fresh is a Kitchen Aid inspired Pot Holder.

I love the Ice Kitchen Aid my family bought for me a couple of years ago – the hardest part was deciding what colour to choose! I found the perfect aqua polka dot fabric to use in the raw edge appliqué.

I think it could be one of my all time favourite projects – it puts a smile on my face when I spot it in the kitchen.

I think perhaps it could be almost too good to use! (especially for a messy cook like me….)

I am currently working on a pattern for three stylish pot holders. Stay tuned – the Kitchen Aid Pot Holder with appliqué templates will definitely be included.

The Chalkboard spice jar and latte bowls are from Anthropologie.

I stitched a colourful set using Ruby Star Society fabrics - a Relaxation Eye Pillow and a Heavenly Heatpack - and styled them into a complete gift bundle.To make it feel extra special, I lined a small bamboo tray with soft tissue, added the two calming makes, tied them with a pink ribbon, and tucked in a few thoughtful extras: a candle, a box of speciality tea, and a tiny plant.

Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to t Thank you so much for the wonderful reception to the Quadra Pouch launch last week — I’m thrilled you’re loving this pattern as much as I do.Today I’m sharing a brand new Tilda version, stitched in the large size and made entirely from blenders. I used four Bellflower prints from the Wallflower range for the exterior, and four Stella prints from the Songbird collection for the lining — eight fabrics in total, making it delightfully scrappy.I love how easily Tilda collections mix and match, and how each corner of the pouch showcases a different print. The clever panel construction gives the pouch a neat flat base without boxed corners, and the result is both practical and beautifully structured.If you’d like to sew your own, the Quadra Pouch pattern is available in both my Pattern Store and Etsy Shop.Comment QUADRA and I’ll send the link straight to you.Pattern Details: Quadra Pouch (3 Sizes) - available in our Pattern Store and Etsy ShopFabric: Bellflower blenders and Stella blenders from Tilda, with thanks to @tilda_australia#tildafabrics #quadrapouch #sewingproject #scrapfriendlysewing #pouchpattern
