Apron Pot Holders

I made some apron potholders for Christmas gifts. One of these days, I'll post the pattern.


Darn it, they need a bow don't they? Erg. I wanted to be done!


Kinda Purdy.....I zigzagged the sides down and used clear thread for the pockets.


They are lined with Insulbright and one layer of batting. I don't like how the insulbright makes a crinkly noise, but at least they should reflect heat good. :o)

Vintage Red and White Potholders

 
Look at the TREASURE I found at the Antiques store! Some vintage red and white potholders. I've been wanting to make some, but now,... there's no rush.
 
 
I cleaned them with some biz. It got the stains out really well, but faded some of the colors. :P I should have been more patient and gone a gotten some retro clean. I know it works great. You soak the items for a couple of days in the sun to keep the water warm, but not too warm.
