Another set of potholders for Christmas!! I layered the two large half square triangles, pinned them, drew a line from corner to corner across the two colours, stitched a quarter inch from the line on both sides and then cut them apart on the line. I stitched them to each other to create points. I did the same for this set. I added strips of red all the way around and then added batting. I cut backers from some vintage cotton fabric which worked quite well colour wise. I stitched two little hangers, stitched them to my top layer and then bound the potholders by folding the backing to the front and stitching it into place. I added quilting lines in the light triangles. The colours of the fronts are a little off - they are like the last set which I linked to. Another set to add to the ones I will be bringing for our Christmas celebration this year. Therese
