Thanks, friends, for all the kudos and interest in my project. It warms my heart! This project was shown at our local “Creative U” on two separate occasions. Later, I found that I had purchased the pattern twice. My DD loves to make pies, so I thought they would be perfect for her. Of course, my other DD should have some . . . and a DFriend . . . and myself . . .

Susansomethings ~ Your DD’s cake is wonderful!

Here’s a link to the pattern I used:
Grandma Dot’s Fruit Pie Hot Pads: http://www.pacificfabrics.com/shop/p...t-pad-pattern/

If you can’t find the ric rac locally, you can order it here: http://www.theribbonretreat.com/Cata...FQWCQgodQQ4Ajw It’s the Jumbo size. Or you could gather up some fabric as shown here: http://sewing.about.com/od/homedecpr...tpourripie.htm

The pattern just calls for the ric rac sewn on flat, but I folded it in half and liked the look better. I “faced” the insulbright towards the top, so it’s more of a hotpad than a potholder.

Also, the “strawberry” is really raspberry.
