Welcome

A blog, like life, is a mixture of all sorts of things. You think you are going down one road when all of a sudden you come across a curve and find yourself going off in a totally different direction. My blog covers my interests in gardening and crafting, with some reading and photography added in along the way. Depending on the season or my mood the posts will reflect more of one side of me than the other.

Pot Holder Towels

Are you looking for a simple and quick gift to make for the upcoming holiday season?

Pot holder towels make up very quickly and are great to tuck in with gifts, in a Christmas stocking, or make several all the same and give as a gift on its own.

You need one pot holder and one hand towel. Both can be purchased at various dollar stores.

Find the center of the pot holder and the center of the towel.
Pin together.
You will need to gather the towel in to fit the potholder.
Stitch securely on your sewing machine.


Fold the pot holder in half, stitch a button on the opposite side to the loop. You can hang this on your oven door, fridge door or on a hook. It doubles as a pot holder and a hand towel.

Have a look at some other quick and easy gifts you can make.

Me too -- I have several towels with crocheted or quilted tops, but none that combine the pot holder. Brilliant!
