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

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:
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.
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.
Pin or Clip the Layers:
Secure all the layers together with pins or clips to ensure they don't shift while sewing.
Sew Around the Edges:
Using a 1/4-inch seam allowance, sew around the edges, leaving a small opening for turning.
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.
Close the Opening:
Tuck in the edges of the opening and sew it closed either by hand or with your sewing machine.
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.
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.
