Looking forward to the swap...new to this site, but have done other swaps and hosted several on other sites. Please feel free to check out my profile. Thanks........and remember, you can never be to kind.....

Hahaha. I'm relying on the kindness of strangers. You're right, they can't be too kind!

My potholders are finished. The fronts are crazy quilt pieced (not embroidered), and the amount of batting feels right for a potholder. I'm very happy with them. I'm still new to bindings, tho. So I have some absence-of-perfection going on with the backside. Oh, man, I hate hand sewing, and binding corners are a challenge. sigh

First time making patchwork potholders. Binding is not as easy as it sounds I have discovered. They came out nicely though, just time consuming getting them right. My kitchen is done in sunflowers with barn apple/rusty/barn red as the focal color in the room.
