Potholders and wallet
#1
Well, I spent 10 hours on this Quilters Wallet -- and will never make another. A friend gave me some material and the pattern and wanted me to make one for her. I decided that I should start with a practice one (since the material she gave me is not my style and looks far too expensive to screw up!). Well, the directions are not very clear and I am not that good a seamstress -- so it's OK for me, but I wouldn't give it to anyone! And I tried my best, but know my limitations as a seamstress! So she gets her material and pattern back!
The pot holders were a video from the board I watched -- and they are great! 10 minutes and you're done! My daughter is thinking of painting her kitchen apricot, so I thought this might help her try it out!
Thanks for looking!

Did you know that if you make them 5" instead of 10", they make great coasters? Another quilting friend was thrilled to find out how to make the potholders...and I was glad for the coasters size!

Good job! I tried that wallet and have to say, it is really a nice finished wallet if I ever finish it!! My friend did one and it is so cute, too. I will post a pic when I finally finish mine.
