Simple sewing project, Tutorial: Bias-Edge Pot Holder. Love the fabrics they used too.

Thanks for the link

really nice tut - thanks for sharing. I have sewn for years but am not confident with bias binding.

Thanks so much.

Thanks for the link. I love the way she quilted around the pictures first. That really brought the potholder to life.

I love the pictures they show how better then reading how hugs Carolyn

I was thinking this might be a helpful suggestion for the people with small hoops that can't make the mug rugs. They could stitch out their design, sandwich it with some padding and a backing then.... viola! Homemade mug rug without a 5x7 hoop and in any size/shape.

You're right and that's how I made my first mugrugs. I made the top 'fabric' by sewing 3/4" strips together first. The mugrugs were very attractive. The next lot had a 4x4 Christmas embroidery and then 3/4" strips - also a big hit. Using the strips didn't even dent my over-flowing stash but it was great fun.

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing the info
