Are they for gifts?

Yes I will make up as many as I have fabrics for and use for little gifts..I like doing Christmas fabrics for things like this so I don't have to worry about the color someone has in their kitchen...at Christmas time we can all use these colors for a few wks

Blessings,

Here is the other potholder block I have done..I like the colors arranged this way better...now I have 2 of each so maybe make sets with one of each to make a pair...
