HOT crafts

i made this for my bff so she doesn't burn her hands. or so i don't burn my hands when i'm cookin at her house. i'm also working on a coffee snuggie. maybe this is the labor of love that will make the man and I RICH. still in development, like our relationship.

The potholder contains
repurposed:
1) flannel bits from my auntie's "you're pregnant here are some giant pants" xmas gift (from 2008)
2) my office mate's hand me down cowgirl shirt that i really like but was just too short
3) tie silks from EBay Center for Creative Reuse (which is stocked with zippers for $.25!)
and new:
1) bias tape
2) Insul-Brite or whatever that insulation stuff is

(oh- props: i used Martha's recipe!) 

whoa dude, that's a bunch of layers! Hence the lovely wabi-sabi wonkiness of some of my seams.

stay cool, hand-os.
