Microwave Bowl Potholder Tutorial




NOTE: DO NOT HEAT IN MICROWAVE OVEN-MAY CAUSE A FIRE-USE AS A POTHOLDER TO REMOVE AND HOLD HOT ITEMS.

Originally posted on this blog in June of 2012, here it is again by popular request. Click HERE to connect to the tutorial....but before you begin this project...

A couple of things I should point out when making these bowls (and I've made at least 100 of them):

*Be sure to use only Warm & Natural Cotton batting

*Only use cotton thread

*Remember, use only 100% cotton--no glitter, gold trim, flannel, etc.

*For best results, I pre-wash my batting and fabric BEFORE cutting.

*When folding in half to sew your darts, try running your finger between the layers to smooth out any wrinkles before sewing.

*Press every seam--it will make the finishing process so much neater!
