Patchwork Hots Pads

I've been wanting to try these for awhile, but have been a little scared to begin. You see... I've never tried patchwork, quilting, or used bias tape. Even though this is such a simple little project, it was the unknown that scared me.
Here's the fronts. And here's the backs.


And yes these came with many, many mistakes, but only because I didn't know what the heck I was doing. Oh well, handmade goods wouldn't be so special if they were perfect, right?

  2. those look so cute, great way to start on the patch work. . nice and small! You should try a rag quilt sometime, those are super easy (that was my first quilting attempt). I was just looking at my crusty pot holders wondering if it was time to do them in. . maybe i should put all my scraps together instead. What's in the inside to keep it heat resistant?
