UPCOMING PROJECT

I just got through making six Christmas potholders.  I had such a struggle with them.  They were larger and the pocket was so hard to position right.  I decided I was through making potholders but I guess not.  No more Christmas ones though. I am going to be making 24 potholders (12 sets of two.) of the style I have pictured above. These are much easier to make. Why am I doing this?
         Donna joined the Red Hat ladies and in April they need to bring a gift for each person at their luncheon. Donna says most of them bring candy but she wanted to do something different.  There are twelve ladies. We finally decided the potholders would be the easiest. I think we probably have enough material. Donna will buy anything we need, bias tape, insulabrite. I will just be doing the embroidery and Donna will assemble them all.  This will definitely keep me busy. There are a lot of designs to choose from so each set will look different. I suppose something will come up in one of the new magazines that I just have to make.
         Maybe I will get my machine for it's maintenance in the Spring.
          Update on the potholders.  I am making 13 sets of two.  Donna forgot to count herself.
