Would you like to join my Potholder Pass? I thought it would be fun to have a potholder swap. If you would like to participate, please leave a comment or send me an email with your name, mailing address, and color preferences. Include your blog address or Flickr photo stream if you have one. You may sign up until January 16, 2010. Once I have every one’s information, I will send out email messages to each participant, assigning you to another member of the group. You will have a month to create your potholders and get them in the mail.

This would be a fun way to try out new quilt blocks, material combinations, etc. with little commitment and little stress. Hopefully, the recipient will love the potholders but if not, they will serve their purpose and eventually get spilled on and burned. So, you need not stress too much!

The rules:

1. Potholders should be a minimum of 6″, preferably 7-8″.

2. Please use Thermolam or like material in the potholder-at least one layer, preferably two.

3. Try to accommodate your recipient’s color requests and their taste.

4. Send a set of 2 potholders. They can be identical or coordinating.

If you’d like to join, grab the button above and post it on your blog!

Also, join the Flickr group where you will post pictures of the potholders that you create.
