Practice and a Quickie

This is my second time so far making hot pads. The first time was when I was about 12yrs old. Not sure what they looked like, or how they held up. So for sure I will remember my second time around, because these are unforgettably cute. These were great practice for different stippling designs, and binding.
Now I'm off to bake some yummy treats, so I can use these adorable hot pads.

  6. the fabric is Robert Kaufman.

    For the insides, I used a layer of warm n white, and a layer of insul-bright that I picked up a Joannes, sandwiched between my fabrics.

    thanks. for loving the hotpads!
