    You can do pot holders, or the hot bowl holders.

    Lined zipper pouches. I make a set of three sizes and include a carabiner clip in a matching color to hold them together. This time of year I make them in feminine colors and advertise them as bridal shower gifts. You could also do them for new mothers to carry to the hospital. Carabiner clips are shaped sort of like a capital D and have a spring opening. They come in tons of colors and are for sale almost everywhere.

    ijust made for my cousin a pot holder, but big for a roasting/lasagna pan. you always have to put out 4 mismatched potholders. I thought this was a good idea. lined with 2 layers of insulbrite. you may have to bring a pan to show how it's used, but a good gift. i also made two potholders with it. to carry the tray to the table.
