This is what I've been practicing my binding on. I just keep making more and more. They get a little better each time.

I really like the pot holders,and your colors. I like to sew the back of my binding on by hand, do you? Why not try a table topper, placemats or a doll quilt to branch out a little bit. Good luck.

On a quilt I would probably sew by hand on the back but probably not on potholders.

I hand stitched them all to the back. I tried machine sewing, but it turned out terrible. I was just thinking about place mats. I have to admit, I'm getting tired of pot holders. lol I've been trying things that don't take a lot to put together, so I can get to the binding part faster. ;)

You used pretty coordinating fabrics for the potholders - and the corners on your bindings are very respectable! :thumbup:

All are very pretty and you certainly did a great job.

They are looking good. When I do potholders I put my binding on "back to front" so to speak and sew it down by machine on the front. I hope the quilt police do not catch up with me:shock:

Your potholders are beautiful. I enjoy making them. I keep several available to share from time to time as "thinking" gifts............Yours so neat........Do you make your binding......?? I do and enjoy too........I include the hanging loop for mine.........Just need to improve on that......Do you have any suggestions for finishing the hanging loop.

Happy Quilting

Your potholders are so pretty. I loved the fabrics you used. And they are peerfect for a gift.

They look good to me! Are you also adding a loop for hanging?
