Sewing - three sets of potholders for my Christmas stash


 I stitched these three sets as well today!!  I used scraps of the Budweiser fabric with coordinating solids for the fronts of two of them.  One of them was backed with red and the other with navy.  The center set features birdhouse fabric and yellow scraps on each side.  I added several rows of stitching to each side of the center strips to keep all the layers together.  The birdhouses were backed with black.  These are going into my personal stash.  After my Mom passed earlier this year I decided I would be the one to take over making potholders for the family for Christmas.  She had made potholders for many years now and everyone gets to choose a new set at Christmas.  I am looking forward to adding a few more to this stash in the next little while.  Therese
