Teal hot flash. That was the challenge this month.
Lets spin this! The color of the month is teal, so there is a little teal in the butterfly fabric and one of the hand areas is teal. The hot flash... that come in when you open the oven and use the oven mitts to retrieve what's in there. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
Also - the old ones are falling apart ( or leaned it on the hot stoneware for way too long) so it was a great excuse to make some new ones. I used a version of this pattern, and cut around 8 inches since that was the extra from the last time I cut into the special heat resistant batting. Free pattern I used.
The old one.
Front
Back
This is the front of the teal one - I love the little pocket for your hand - that part is just batting. The batting and heat resistant is in the black butterfly part.
This is the back. This one got the loop, as I used leftover binding from the last quilt and had just enough for the second one. So, a great use of that leftover binding fabric.
That's my entry this month for the Table Scrap Challenge. Head on over to the link and see how others did with this challenge. Also linking up with the RSC.
What a neat new potholder you've made for the table scrap challenge...;))) nice work hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteI definitely have been getting hot flashes if I used the oven this month, so new potholder are a great idea! Thanks for linking to the tutorial, too. Yours is so cute - I love the butterfly fabric. Fun finish, Deb!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant interpretation of the theme, Deb! Please accept my apologies, but would you add your photo to the corrected TABLE SCRAPS Challenge link? I messed up the first one with a cut/paste error. Sorry!
ReplyDeleteYes, a pot holder is perfect for a hot flash theme. Love the simplicity of this pattern.
ReplyDeleteGreat answer to Joyful’s challenge. I’m going to go look for that pattern, after 61 years of housekeeping I could always use new better hot pads.
ReplyDeleteSuch a clever interpretation & great hot pads from it!
