I keep saying this month has been a busy month – I just can't help it – this month has been crazy! My Grandma has been in the Hospital and that's been filling up every spare moment we have! Before she got sick My Mom, Aunt, and I decided to sign up for a Sewing Class. Somehow we all managed to get Grandma taken care of and still make the class.

I'm so happy we did manage to get the class in – we were all exhausted but it felt good to unwind for a couple of hours and do a little crafting! at the Class we made Pot Holders / Oven Mitts. Of course mine had to be made with Stampin' Up! fabric!!

I made one with the Sweet Stitches Designer Fabric

and even used the Melon Mambo Pom Poms for my trim! How stinkin cute is this…

Now I'll admit – my sewing skills are nothing to write home about – and making the trim look this good did require some "Mom" help!! But it actually wasn't too hard!!

I also made one featuring the Springtime Vintage Designer Fabric

I added a little Navy Blue Rick a Rack trim for this fabric. I think it give a nice punch of darker color.

I was able to get two Pot Holders / Oven Mitts out of the Fabric packs (with fabric left over for another project) and I thought it would be fun to make a set but change up the pocket fabrics…

These were so easy to make – Even a newer sewer could get a set made up pretty quickly!!

If you want to add these fabrics to your stash, order today.

ETA: For those of you who have asked – This is the pattern I used on this project

    Is there a pocket in the potholder and can you give the dimensions and where you got the pattern – it’s something different I’d like to try. thanks

    I added info about the pattern to the blog post – thanks for your interest!! 🙂 and Kim… There is a pocket in the potholder – where the rounded flap is folded down – you can use these as a potholder or an oven mitt! 🙂
