Making Hot Pads


Hot pads/ pot holders are fun and reasonable to make!  I love making them for gifts.  I buy InsulBrite, for the inside, and use an old towel with it-it is a great way to get rid of your towels.  I use my cutting mat, and rotary cutter.  I use this plastic things to measure, it is exactly 8 inches.  So you need 2 pieces of fabric, one for the top, and one for the bottom, 1 piece of InsulBrite, and one old towel, cut each one into an 8"x8" piece.  Then layer them and pin them together, and you can start sewing.
