I've used insulbrite by itself for potholders and then insulbrite with on layer of cotton batting for table runners. You can get the insulbrite from JoAnn's & WalMart. Good stuff for insulating casserole totes, too!

Insultbrite is 3 layers of fabric - 2 course layers of a polyester/rayon fabric with a layer of insulation foil in the middle all sewn together. I believe this is the best way to describe it. I even use it when making steering wheel covers. Great stuff and easy to sew through.

Hi, I have found several patterns for pot holders, and have used the insul-bright along with one square of felt. I had the felt squares on hand, so thought a good way to use it. This seems to work and the thickness is just right.

I just made some hot pads for 9x13 casserole dishes as prizes for my monthly card club. They were a huge hit. Darn it, that was last night & didn't take any pics! I used 1 layer insulbright and 1 layer warm & natural batting.

In Guild we made some long potholders. They had hand pockets on each side. I made mine long enough to take out a 9x13 pan. It hangs nicely on the oven door. Also I found out just insul-brite isn't enough, I use a piece of fleece when making pot holder.
