    I've never made one, but my aunt had given me one. I've never used it because I don't cook my potatoes in the microwave.

    I like the idea of using it for tortilla and rolls.

    If you've never seen one, here's a picture of a popular pattern for them -- for fabric requirements click on "enlarge" then scroll to the second picture.

    There is also a batting made specifically for these now by Warm Company, called "Warm Tater."

    Does it use a special batting or is it just 100% cotton bating?

    I don't use any batting in mine. Just cotton quilt fabric for the outside and flannel for the lining. Make sure everything is 100% cotton, including thread. No batting would cut down on the cost and this works fine. This is what I've seen at craft shows around here. I don't remember what the price was.

    I like the idea of the nylon scrubby. How do you make those?
