Heart Shaped Pot Holders

Be still my H.E.A.R.T.
Martha has done it again.
Love, love, love these heart shaped pot holders along with a free tutorial over on
Martha Stewart

*Good idea: I noticed in the comment section people were suggesting using Insul Bright along with the regular batting.

Insul Bright (by the Warm Company) is a heat resistant Mylar/poly fabric that works great in potholders. Make sure to place the shiny side to the top. It's best used with at least one layer of cotton batting.

I made these from the original pattern and the only thing I recall was that the single fold binding was SUPER skinny and challenging. My MIL that I made them for loves them but I would do wider/double binding next time.

What fun potholders. I will have to go sniff it out.

I love them too. Wish I had time to stay home and sew with red! I'd certainly make these. That Martha.
