Jan thanks for the info. I have made the micro bowl holders. I just quit putting them in the microwave. I slide the bowl in after it's heated. I do love them. I did go ahead and make the quilt using the 100 % cotton batting. I paid only $4 a bag for it and bought both bags they had. It says right on the bag it is for the bowl holders even a pattern on the back. No scrim in it. I think Judy misunderstood my first posting. I know insul brite has the metallic fibers so not to use it. I love the fabric yours are made out of. Very cute. I made one with cambells soup cans on it. Old fabric from maybe 4 yrs ago. I only had a small piece so it worked out good. Thanks again and I always appreciate peoples input and taking the time to try to help out, when I have a question. There are sure a lot of pretty fabrics.
