I buy plain potholders for quick projects. I was going to give this one as a gift but after I stitched this out I decided to keep it for myself. Design is from here on cute embroidery.

Looks very nice.
Do you "open " design and close again afterwards, or do you sew with same color thread and bobbin ?

Those roses really stitched out nicely! Good idea to keep the pot holders around for a quick gift.

Very pretty. Seems a lot of posts lately are kitchen related. Maybe someone is trying to give me a hint, lol. I agree with sjbrower that having beautiful accessories in the kitchen helps make the chore a little more tolerable. The red and black really set each other off nicely too.

Thank you. Yes, he smallest change in a kitchen can make everything feel new, and towels and potholders are easy to stitch.

Very pretty...do you cover the back with anything or use the same colors in the bobbin...or just stitch through the potholders?

Glad that I scroll and read all the comments because this is exactly what I wanted to know too.

zoefzoef by zoefzoef 28 Jul 2015

I have just posted the same question

marianamin2003 by marianamin2003 29 Jul 2015

Thank you. I stitch right through the potholder using black bobbin thread. I used a basting stitch on stabilizer prior to embroidering instead of fitting it in the frame. When finished, I cover the back with a piece of heavy duty felt that is widely available where I live. Then when I have to use it, I only use the felt side, trying to preserve the embroidery.
