Sewing - hot pad with cover - houses, teapots, farm and leaves


Have been wanting to work on a project so I made up this hot pad with a removable and reversible cover.  The insert was one I had on hand from a previous sewing session. I dug through all my bins and found several pieces that I thought would work together and provide a bit of variety.  
A little village scene, a farm yard, leaves in squares and Debbie Mumm teapots flanked in coordinating cotton fabric.   I made up the four pieces.  Stitched two to each other and then stitched them wrong sides facing and leaving a gap so I could turn the cover inside out.  I then stitched the both edges which closes the gap and provides a bit of structure.  I will be adding several rows of stitching to this cover along the edges of the village and teapots to help it keep its shape when it is washed.    Therese
