These were both made with Insul-Bright batting. This was much thicker than the normal cotton batting that I usually use. I decided to machine quilt them, and I am happy with how they turned out.
The backing fabric is white linen. I like the softness that they give to the potholders, and I also like the way the machine quilting shows up. Yep, this was a fun project.
piece,
These are so cute! Great jobs on the curves - they still terrify me!
ReplyDeleteLove these potholders!
ReplyDeletethese are really cute. I use both insulbright and regular batting inside potholder, yeah kind of a bear to quilt, but I do it :-)
ReplyDeleteNow go do a large quilt with drunkards path blocks!! lol
A+ on your curves! :)
ReplyDeleteI love them & it's such a
nice way to learn & use the block...will the bigger quilt be in these pretty colors?
Adorable!

They're fantastic! Great job! I haven't attempted curves yet, but starting with potholders is a great idea... :o)
ReplyDeleteThey turned out great, Elizabeth! :)

Those are SO pretty! I love the colors, especially the polka-dots on the one on the right. And I really like the quilting! Beautiful job! Oh, and good tip on the insul-bright. I'm going to see if I can find some for a potholder I want to make for my sister.

I love these! My sister bought me some drunkard's path templates, but I'm too afraid to try them out!
