At a craft show I saw what looks like a bowl shaped pot holder for the microwave. You set your bowl in the potholder before you put it in the microwave. When the food is hot you just take the bowl shaped pot holder and the bowl out. you can use it to pass around the table without worrying that the bowl will slip off the flat pot holder.

Neat. Wonder about a pattern

The fabric bowls made out of clothesline would work too :D:D:D

I've never heard of that, but it's a great idea!

Cool

so everyone who has difficulty making bias diamonds coming together and end up with cup shapes now have a use for them :lol: :lol: :lol:

yes, great idea

I have several of these. They're also great for holding a hot bowl of chili while watching the tube :)

That's the one, thanks. I should have just asked you to begin with.
