 They are done! All 11 sets (22 bowls) are done and ready for gifting....except for the 2 I'm keeping for myself.
I wrote a tutorial for the way I made mine. I was really disappointed with all of the other tutorials that I saw online. They looked very pretty in their styled photos but once I read through the steps I knew that none of them would hold up through one trip through the washing machine. I don't know about you, but when I microwave soup or oatmeal there's almost always overspill. These hot pad are going to get washed a lot so I added some steps to make them last. Get the tutorial here.

I really like these Vicki and they'd be perfect for gifts. Not something that the Resident Chef would remember to use....he'd rather burn his fingers.

That's a good point about washing. Thanks for the tip about stitching the layers together! And the double row of topstitching is good, too. Comments are closed.
