I love my tortilla warmer - I love the idea of making them as gifts. Thanks!

These are also great for holding your ice cream bowl!
I made a slight change to mine. I cut open the darts after they are sewn and trimmed away some batting so that when the 2 sides are put together there is way less bulk in those areas.

Attachment-241484.pdf I just read all 383 posts to this thread, and no one there had this good idea. Thank you so much.

I have seen the pattern for the bowls that included the quilted tops to keep splatters from making a mess. have made at least a dozen bowls but never bothered with lids. My kids use them to reheat leftovers, chili etc. not just soup

THANKS for the laugh but I was thinking the same thing. We all have senior moments at one time or another !! My friend made me one and told me it was to be put on top to keep the microwave clean. I told her otherwise. They do really work well. Great idea to use up those scraps of batting.

Thank you for my first laugh on an otherwise frustrating day!

For fear of sounding like a broken record please be careful and selective, when putting fabric in the microwave. A fire in the microwave is a dangerous situation. Arcing in your microwave can also ruin it.

Linda just has "Microwave Fabric Bowls" in her post, and that got me to the long thread. On this thread there are directions to make a bowl with wavy edges. It is made with 8 shaped darts, and is really cute. You can wear it for a hat.

This is the link to the directions to make a plain one. Attachment-241484.pdf
