Easy Round Potholders Free Sewing Pattern


"Make my easy round potholders for your kitchen or a DIY gift! My free quilted potholder pattern folds like a taco around cookie sheets and pot lids to protect your hands from the heat, making this round taco hot pad style both functional and cute.
My free sewing pattern and tutorial is simple to make, and I'll show you the proper way to layer fabric, batting, and Insul-Bright for heat protection. It's a great fabric scrap-buster project that's a fun alternative to sewing oven mitts. Use holiday fabric for a cute Christmas sewing project for holiday cookie baking."
