Pot holders using quilting fabric.

Loop from the back.

Stitch in the ditch sewing.

Pinned border.

Back view. Pin border from the front of the pot holder.

Quilting the top of the pot holder. I use a ruler as a guide instead of marking lines.

Marking the longest lines with a ruler.

Layers of fabric, front fabric is on top.

Pick two separate cotton fabric, cotton batting, shinny grey Insul Bright fabric for heat resistance, cotton border material and cotton thread. Cut fabric, batting and Insul Bright. 8.5" x 8.5".
