Haute Pads

Who doesn’t need new potholders? Whether you are taking something hot out of the oven or protecting your tabletop from hot pots or dishes, why not make a potholder as pretty as it is practical? Made completely in the hoop (with only one bit of machine sewing for a finishing touch, which is optional), these hot mats are perfect for gifting as well as keeping for yourself!

There are 4 different sizes of potholders in this set: The smallest size fits in most 5×7 hoops and ends up being perfectly sized for a large cup of tea or for that drippy honey pot. The 6” size fits in most 6×10 hoops, the 7.78” size fits in most 8×12 hoops, and the 9.11” size fits in most 9+ hoops.

Each size comes in two styles of quilting: a traditional grid quilting and an all-over stippling. These are perfect for showcasing a fun print or using up fabric scraps. You might also choose to add lettering and/or other embroidery right there in the hoop as you work! (The PDF step-by-step instructions also mention how to do that.)

*PLEASE NOTE – JEF format does not accommodate the 9.11″ design size. (All other formats include all 8 designs.)
