Have you tried to make a Soup Bowl Cozy?

They are so easy to make! I have used a standard pattern and cut them out as well as used the Blue Wren Die with my Accuquilt. I have made dozens of them. They are a big hit for shower prizes, Holiday gifts and so many other special days. We use them at home all the time. They are also great to use with Ice Cream.

I made a bunch of them to sell at craft fairs a few years ago. I did sell about half of what I had made, and the rest are still in a storage tub upstairs. I need to get a few out to use myself. It's fun to combine fabrics to make them different on each side.
I would never dare to microwave them.

Great idea to use orphan blocks

I microwave for 30 seconds at a time to reheat, and I've never started a fire! I know it is all cotton. I made a pair that complement each other, and the other photo shows the spiral quilting in the bottom of one cozie, which added stability. I found that my round casserole dish also fits!

I first saw how to make the bowl cozy here on this board, I think about 2009? It was first called Bowl Potholder. No one in my quilt group or guild had ever seen one before. The first instructions were very basic. I made steps and added pictures so I could have instructions to pass out.
