I used old wool sweaters, felted beyond wearability, to interline these potholders. I am trying to reduce my stash!!

Sweet!!! Great way to reduce stash. (Reminds me of my mother - she would try different blocks and make into potholders... always sharing w/me.)

Love the potholders, I would never have thought to use old sweaters! Great idea. I could probably get all kinds of things done if I didn't spend so much time on here looking at all the great things others are doing!
