Thanks again!
Hope you can load the picture, I'd like to see a pot holder for the crock-pot, sounds like a great gift! Sarah
The pot holder is made this way= cut 2 fabrics and 1 batting in a 8 1/2" circle. layer to fabrics right sides together and batting on top.sew all around 1/4" from edge leave 1" or more to turn right side out. turn right side out.Sew 1/8" seem around outside edge to catch the opening. sew around in the middle about 1" from edge. then sew another seam inside of that one about 1/2" smaller.Now you should have a circle with 2 sewn smaller circles centered in it.between the 2 centered circles cut a small slit. thread a 1/4" wide piece of elastic through it. pull the elastic to gather up the fabric and tie a knot cut extra elastic off. work knot into potholder. It should now look like a shower cap or a old fashion nightcap. Your done. These fit over the handle on the lid of a crockpot.It is also reversable. Any problems just pm me. Mary
