    they're nice, and easy. very handy!
    These would not be safe to use in the microwave.

    These really are the handiest things. Our Adult 3 Ladies Sunday School class made these as a fundraiser for our Acteens (along with a tub full of snap bags) to help get us to Blume. Both were an instant hit. We even had to take backorders :)

    They had a copyrighted pattern, I think, because they had to get permission for us to sell the product made from the pattern, but they were a huge hit! I love the ones we got for my house, and am building a stash of them for our next fundraising effort :) They are a great FQ project.

    Maybe those washcloths were not 100% cotton.


    OoLaLa clothing designer has a fashion show and before you can sneeze there are knockoffs for sale.
    I think it's safe for us to make generic hot pads with darts. :)

    The ones made with Mod Podge and the quilted ones are two completely different things. One is a crafty type that hardens with glue and the other one is a "quilted" cloth item.
