Do you make your own potholders?

yes, I have a lot of stray blocks that I make up into potholders when the mood strikes me. Some of the smaller blocks need a border added to make them a usable size. They are great for practicing with new stitches or FMQ.
I get the batting with the shiny heat proof lining.. can't think of the name right now. And I use at least two layers of in the pot holder.. one layer is NOT good. Trust me on that!

I make my own potholders, but mine are the cotton loops put on the square loom frame and weaved together and then the loops, looped together.....been doing these since I was a little girl. That's a long time ago!

Charlie, I loved making those potholders when I was a little girl! I'm sure I'd enjoy it now.
I made a few potholders last year for gifts, but haven't made any for myself (usually the case!) I'd like to, though!

Yes, I make my own potholders. Everytime my two married daughters come they ask for them, so it keeps me busy having them on hand. I use scraps and fill them with old sweatshirt material, several layers. Old towels work well too. Very easy, and inexpensive to make.
