a while back i saw a cute hot pad that was basically just a rectangle with two side borders. nothing fancy not complicated at all (or it didn't seem to be - lol) thought i bookmarked it but now can't find it - i did a search but i must have overlooked it. i would love to make some for christmas to use up some stash and insul brit i have here. i suppose i should just try to make it myself - huh?
