Jiffy Casserole Carrier
 
Does anyone know the link for this free pattern? It uses 2 squares of fabric and a square of Insul-Brite, then you use 2 brass circles and 2 handles. I have the pattern, but want the link so that I can share it with students and guild members. I'm hoping someone can help.

do any of these work for you? I googled jiffy casserole carrier, free
Good luck. :)

They all look like they'd work better than wrapping the dish up in a clean bath towel and carrying it in a laundry basket.

Unfortunately, the one I want isn't there. I can't believe I lost the link. *sigh* I did find that site and liked a lot of them. I may just have to retune the instructions so that I can share them with others.

Instead of the laundry basket, I use a cheap duffle bag!

I think that pattern is sold on Nancy's notions site. I've searches for a free one but have never found one. I've seen them at craft shows and think they look nice-but I'm no springing for a pattern

I think this might be the one you are looking for. I have been meaning to make some of them myself now that I finally found the brass rings needed. I found them at Tandy Leather in case anyone else is having trouble finding them.

It's close, but not the one I'm looking for, however, I can easily tell people how to modify these directions. I've learned my lesson, be sure to keep the links for free patterns I've used for ages! Lol

Handcraftsbyjen 07-26-2012 07:25 PM

Thanks everyone for trying to help. I will have to continue looking and hope I find it or restyle my directions.

TShooters 07-26-2012 07:46 PM

Darn! Okay...you said two handles. Can you describe how the handles work? And the brass circles?

Liz92B 07-26-2012 07:48 PM

if you have the pattern, what does it say within the text? what's the actual title?

I wish I knew a pattern to tell you. Have made this same one from looking at the one my DIL has. Very easy to make. Hope you find the pattern. I found a beautiful glitter cupcake fabric and made the carrier a little larger so DIL could carry large round cupcake container in it for the children's school parties. Wish I had it here to send a pic to you.

Okay, typo by me at first, it does only have one handle. It is simply called the Jiffy Casserole Carrier and when I printed it quite some time ago from online I didn't write the website and I didn't print it on white paper...or I'd just photocopy it. There aren't many steps and the picture of the carrier has fruit on it. I'm soooo frustrated! I wanted to be able to share the pattern and it's hard to do when I can't remember where I printed it from. Why is it that the easiest patterns are the ones we forget where we got them from. Lol. I sure hope I'm not the only one who does this! Thanks for trying to help. When you attach the 3" brass rings, you fold down 2 of the corners and stitch a small triangle to secure each ring.

Handcraftsbyjen 07-26-2012 09:02 PM

Here is the closest picture to the one I'm trying to find: http://www.camplebanon.org/files/1048.pdf and then scroll down to Jiffy Casserole Cover. On mine, the trianes holding the brass rings aren't on the outside, they are on the inside but this is pretty much it.

nellie 07-26-2012 09:57 PM

thats a nice gift to make thank you for pattern and ideas

Can you scan it to a pdf file? Then you can share it.

I wish! Unfortunately, I was getting tired of always buying paper for my countless patterns I printed, so I started using my scrapbook paper I no longer wanted to print on, and this is one I did like that. The background has all sorts of stuff going on and it doesn't scan easy enough to ready and the paper is so busy some people won't be able to read it. I guess I'm just going to have to retune everything and take a picture of one I made to add to the top. It's funny how dependent we can become on the Internet and how I just want to find it online and hit print. Lolol I've learned my lesson...always have one extra copy (on plain paper) and be sure to keep the website!

Latrinka 07-27-2012 05:00 AM

Thanks ya'll for sharing all these links!

KLO 07-27-2012 09:26 AM

Here is one I found in my bookmarks. It looks similar to the one you posted but I couldn't quite tell if it was the same or not. I'll let you decide if it's what you are looking for:

How old is your Indian Ring Neck? My male Lutino was 32 when he went over the Rainbow bridge 3 months ago.

i think he is close to 13 yrs old.... hes quite a talker but a biter so i dont hold him anymore i love to find him a home where someone can use him as a breeder in a big cage.....

GrannyH 07-28-2012 11:57 AM

I copy the URL of the website into the document if it is a Word document before I save it. If I print it, I write the URL on the pattern. If it is a .pdf, I save the .pdf and also save a Word document with the same name as the .pdf. In the Word document, I put the URL and a picture from the .pdf with a reference to the fact that the directions are saved in the .pdf. Just a bit of cross referencing.....

Sewhappytoquilt 07-28-2012 12:43 PM

Mine looks just like the one in your link:

Casserole Carrier
Cut 2: 19 1/2" squares of fabric
Cut 1: 19 1/2" square of batting (Insulbright retains more heat, but regular batting works well also)

Cut 2: 4x20" pieces of fabric for handle
Cut 1: 4x20" piece of batting

two: 3" rings

Place the two squares, right sides together, then put on the top of batting square. Stitch around the square, leaving a 4-5" opening on one side for turning. Trim corners at an angle and turn right side out, press, slip-stitch the opening closed. Quilt by stitching corner-to-corner and side to-to-side.

Place the handle fabrics right sides together and place on top of batting piece. Stitch the long sides, turn right side out, press, and quilt the handle.

Sew the handle on two opposite corners.
Sew the 3" rings in the two other corners.

To use, place the casserole in the center of the square and slip the handle through the rings.
