TQC Journal | Holiday Hot-pad


This was such a fun quilt to make and I will definitely 
find the time to make another potholder quilt. Once you 
have all the pieces made use a ladder stitch on the backside to
 join all the pieces together. I used this great ladder stitch video 

I hope your halls are decked and you are ready for Christmas.
I hung my quilt on this fun Artist Sketch and Tote Board 
Enjoy! Merry Christmas

My Potholder Quilt created quite a stir! I thought it would
be fun to make a simple Christmas project for you to sew 
along with me. I am taking inspiration from the same blocks
we have been stitching in the Mini Monday Sewing Bee. 
I will be posting a daily block for the next 13 days. With the 
big reveal coming on December 14th.
