Quilted Pot holders with insulbright
I am using insulbright and one layer of cotton batting and i am wondering if you put the shiny side of insulbright next to fabric or next to the cotton batting? Thanks you if anyone knows.

I used a layer of insulbrite sandwiched between layers of flannel sandwiched between layers of decorative fabric. I didn't worry about the way the insulbrite faced since the shiny layer is shiny on both sides and is already between its own layers of batting.

One layer of insulbright isn't enough to insulate you from the heat. I use at least 3 layers of something in a pot holder to keep from getting burned. The additional layers can be cotton batting, old mattress pads, old towels, ... I wouldn't use polyester batting. It could be melted with the heat in an oven. I'm not even convinced that insulbright is needed. It was a solution to a perceived problem. I do have some, though and have used it.

Thank you guys for all these answers. I did not ask the question but I have several quilted pieces I'm ready to put together and was going to come here and ask. It just seemed too thin. I think I'll see if I have a thin worn out towel somewhere or flannel.
Once again you guys are great.
