Question. About Kitchen towel & Hot pad club
 
Hi there,

received email from Shabby Fabrics to join a Kitchen Towel and Hot Pad Club …

wondering if anyone sent $10.00 to be put on their list?

It says you will receive everything you need to make 12 hanging towels and matching hot pads over the 12 months of 2023 for 46.50 a month?

Seems pricy to me unless maybe I missed something. Hot pad do look very nice ..but

not even something I'd care to make. the stores are stuffed with them, inexpensive and much nicer than I can muddle together.

Sounds super SUPER expensive to me.

Those are cute. But, $23.5 for a hot pad is a bit much

I saw one of the BOM that’s $100 a month for 8 months. Unbelievable but there are people buying those. Not me, too rich for my budget

No, that is very expensive, I can make a bunch of hot pads from my scraps and I buy my towels when Kohl's has a sale.

It looks like they use the same pattern every month, just changing the fabric. https://www.shabbyfabrics.com/p14032...d-hot-pad-club

That's insane....

Seems pricy to me too, but I would consider it if I lived in a remote area and had to drive a considerable distance to get fabrics. And it would take me forever to find the coordinating fabrics for the hot pads. Plus you get all the supplies.

The patterns are super cute! They would make great hostess or Christmas gifts.

I would consider it.....if each month I was learning something new and there was a tutorial to go with each month. I sometimes get excited about learning new techniques but need a little push to actually do them.

I just looked at the pictures. Umm, anyone have a guess as to how much the fabrics would cost to make this project? Unfortunately, anything we have the buy the materials for to make puts us back a bit.

A couple of years ago I bought 3 sets of kitchen towels to make for Christmas gifts from Shabby Fabrics. They were really cute but all you need is a pattern. I was in a hurry at that time so I bought them but honestly a pattern is enough. Most of us have enough fabric to make hundreds of them! :D

I'd do a little looking around on Shabby Fabrics before signing up. I found a video showing the process and two items for sale. One item is the Prairie Pointer pressing tool that states the directions are included and the other is a set of twelve refill interfacing templates. They add up to $40.00, a lot less than a 12 month program that cannot be cancelled or refunded.

looks like several thought as I did, they have very good tutorials, but club was too many $ for me, thanks for ideas tho

Wouldn't pay that much. There are too many free patterns out there to pay $610 for.
