You could also made a coordinating hot pad or two. .Here are instructions I found from Katydid:: On a piece of paper cut 18 1/2" square. also make a 6" across circle and fold in half. Now take half circle and place in middle of each side and trace around inner edge. That's the pattern Cut from 2 coordinating fabrics. Stitch leaving about a 4" opening to turn right side out and stitch opening closed. If you like,insert jumbo rickrack or piping, it makes it twice as easy to turn I pressed really good after turning right side out and then stitched all around when I closed the opening.
