Pot holders are a must in every kitchen.
Pot holders are used to hold hot kitchen cooking equipment.
We got several pot holders but most of them are just for decorations.
Just like this …
Mom made this using left over fabric. A dog and cat was sewn on a plain cloth. Inside she used a heat resistant batting. (You may use a regular batting especially if it is a decorative pot holder.)
Here are the steps on how my mom made it …
Cut two 6×6 fabric for the back.
Optional!
Optional!
create a backing for the dog/cat by sewing strip of fabrics on each 4 sides which what my mom did.
Also, cut 5×2 fabric for the holder. You have to fold both ends to the middle then fold it again.
You’ll have a 5×1/2 strip.
Make 2 strips.
FUN Part!
Lay front and back fabric with nice side together, place the holder in between and batting on top of the back fabric. Sew around the 3 layers but leave a 2” opening on one side.
Take the inner fabric and pull it out. Sew around the 3 layers and close the 2” opening.
What do you think?
Definitely Tuesdays Just Got Tastier.

Love the design! I go crazy with different Holiday pot holders…most are just out for decorations as I end up using my 'old faithful' ones. Habit, I guess 🙂

I'm hoping to join Tasty Tuesday again soon. Mom will start making things for T-giving and I'm sure she'll either need my help or need a taste tester

Those are so cute! Our mommy doesn't know how to sew so she can't make them though.
PeeS: Was our mommy supposed to email your mom Sugar? We remember seeing a comment but it was during the whirlwind of last week and now we don't know what she's supposed to do.
What a fun way to celebrate Tasty Tuesday – with cool kitchen stuff! Excellent idea. Those pot holders are really cute. I wonder if the Mama could make them without screwing it up?
They are very pretty too Sugar. Your mom is so very talented.
Have a woof woof day Sugar. My best to your mom. 🙂
I agree with the others, Sugar, your mom is uber-talented. I love making things too. I think I'll give it a try. Sugar, you are so adorable.
