This pattern was cut out way back in the Summer of 2007 to make but for some reason it never got done and has been sitting around to be done.  I came across it again in 2024 and sewed it up and posted on Tiktok as happy to have completed it.  It's amazing that it was still in good condition to work with.  It reminds me, it is the time I began online with all this affiliate marketing attempts of blogging to earn commissions.  I began in affiliate marketing with the interest of starting with something I like to do, which I picked the niche sewing and was going to sew things to blog and also to sell products on the niche of sewing to earn commissions.  Still here trying today and have not sold anything yet. 🧵🪡🤗

Sounds like a cozy and creative endeavor! Here are some ideas to help you create a beautiful pillow from patchwork:

1. **Materials**:

   - Fabric scraps of various colors and patterns

   - Needle and thread or a sewing machine

   - Scissors

   - Ruler

   - Pins

   - Iron and ironing board

   - Pillow insert or stuffing

2. **Design**:

   - Decide on the size and shape of your pillow.

   - Plan your patchwork design by laying out the fabric scraps to create a pleasing pattern. You can go for a traditional square or rectangle pattern or get creative with different shapes.

3. **Cutting and Sewing**:

   - Use the ruler to measure and cut your fabric scraps into the desired shapes. Make sure to leave a seam allowance (usually about 1/4 inch).

   - Arrange the fabric pieces in your planned design and pin them together.

   - Sew the pieces together, either by hand or with a sewing machine. Start with small sections and gradually sew larger sections together until you have a complete patchwork panel.

4. **Assembling the Pillow**:

   - Once your patchwork panel is complete, iron the seams to ensure they lay flat.

   - Cut a backing fabric to match the size of your patchwork panel.

   - Place the patchwork panel and backing fabric right sides together and pin them in place.

   - Sew around the edges, leaving a small opening for turning the pillow right side out.

   - Turn the pillow right side out and iron it to make it look neat.

5. **Finishing Touches**:

   - Insert the pillow insert or stuffing through the opening.

   - Sew the opening closed by hand with a ladder stitch or invisible stitch to create a seamless finish.

There you have it! A unique and charming patchwork pillow to add a personal touch to your space. Have fun with your project, and feel free to experiment with different colors and patterns! 🌟

Fabric Hot Plates or Pot Holders

Fabric hot plates and pot holders are a great way to add a personal touch to your kitchen while keeping it functional and stylish! Here are a few ideas and options:

1. Microwavable Plate Cozy: These are fabric bowl cozies that can also double as pot holders. They're perfect for keeping your hands safe from hot dishes.

2. Quilted Pot Holders: These are often made from fabric scraps and can be both decorative and functional. You can find them on platforms like Etsy.

3. Silicone Trivets: While not purely fabric, these trivets often have fabric covers and provide excellent heat resistance.

Would you like some DIY ideas for making your own fabric hot plates or pot holders, or are you looking to purchase them?

To make them

Great! Making your own fabric hot plates or pot holders is a fun and practical sewing project. Here's a step-by-step guide to get you started:

Materials:

• Fabric: Choose 100% cotton fabric for both the front and back.

• Insulated Batting: Look for products like Insul-Bright, which will help protect your hands from the heat.

• Cotton Batting: This is optional, but adding a layer of cotton batting can provide extra cushioning.

• Thread: Use 100% cotton thread.

• Sewing Machine: You can also sew by hand if you prefer.

• Scissors or Rotary Cutter: For cutting your fabric.

• Pins or Clips: To hold your fabric layers together.

Instructions:

1. Cut Your Fabric and Batting:

   • Cut two 8-inch squares of your fabric (one for the front and one for the back).

   • Cut two 8-inch squares of insulated batting.

   • If you're using cotton batting, cut one or two additional 8-inch squares.

2. Layer Your Pieces:

   • Start with a layer of cotton fabric (right side down).

   • Add your insulated batting on top.

   • Add a layer of cotton batting (if using).

   • Place your second piece of fabric on top (right side up).

   • You should have a sandwich with the fabric on the outside and the batting on the inside.

3. Pin or Clip the Layers:

   • Secure all the layers together with pins or clips to ensure they don't shift while sewing.

4. Sew Around the Edges:

   • Using a 1/4-inch seam allowance, sew around the edges, leaving a small opening for turning.

5. Turn the Pot Holder Right Side Out:

   • Turn your pot holder right side out through the opening.

   • Push out the corners to make them sharp.

6. Close the Opening:

   • Tuck in the edges of the opening and sew it closed either by hand or with your sewing machine.

7. Quilt Your Pot Holder:

   • To keep the layers together, you can quilt your pot holder by sewing straight lines across it. A grid pattern is both functional and attractive.

8. Optional Hanging Loop:

   • If you’d like a hanging loop, cut a small strip of fabric, fold it in half, and sew it into the corner of your pot holder.

Now you've got yourself a handmade fabric hot plate or pot holder! It's a great project for using up fabric scraps and makes a lovely gift.
