One of my IRL (in real life) blogging friends is the super talented Lindsay Conner of Lindsay Sews and she picked this bundle for me to share a tutorial for you from the Clementine line of fabrics in the Anna Griffin shop.
I just love these sweet and vintage-esque prints!
What you'll need:
Strips (cut 6) = 2.5" wide by 4.5" tall
Strip lining (cut 1) = 11" wide by 7" tall
Strip Insul-bright backing (cut 1) = 11" wide by 7" tall
Front panel (cut 1) = 11" wide by 9" tall
Back panel (cut 1) = 11" wide by 9" tall
Back panel Insul-bright (cut 1) = 11" wide by 9" tall
Hanging loop (cut 1) = 4.5" long by 1.5" wide
A fat quarter is typically 18"x22" so if you coordinated with 4 prints you could make a set of 4 potholders!
STEP 1:
Sew strips together with 1/4" seam allowance. Press seams open
STEP 2:
Layer your strip Insul-bright, lining and strip work
Place the lining on top of the Insul-bright with wrong sides together.
Place the stripwork right sides together with the lining and sew across
the top edge only with a 1/4" seam allowance.
STEP 3:
Turn seam over and match bottom raw edges so there is a contrast band made from the lining at the top of the strip work. Place the strip work on top of the front panel. Pin in place.
STEP 4:
Place the back panel on top of the back panel Insul-bright and quilt vertical lines at 1" intervals.
STEP 5:
Sew the hanging loop by pressing long edges in 1/4" toward center. Match up the long edges again and press. Stitch closed. Fold the strip and pin at the top corner of the front panel.
STEP 6:
Place back panel with Insul-bright right sides together with front panel and strip work. Sew along edges leaving a 4" opening to turn.
STEP 7:
Trim all edges and clip corners. Turn right side out and top stitch around pot holder.
