Last week sometime, I cut a whole bunch of 5×5 squares from some really fun, colorful fat quarters I picked up forever ago.

This morning I pulled some white from my box o’ fabric and cut some more. I thought the piecing through this time and paid attention to what I was doing! No unintended design!

I like how they turned out.

I need to find some insulated batting and appropriate backing fabric. Once I gather those, these will be the potholders I will send off this month.

Lessons learned:

• scant 1/4″ seaming
• press press press
• matching seams 
• block layout
