New Quilted Kitty Pot Holder


It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that I would love Laurel Burch designer fabric, with the bright colors and the all the kitty cats. So, I've acquired quite a stash of it, but didn't really have any plans for it.
Well, I joined the quilts and heirlooms team on Etsy and was inspired to made something quilted with it. I hadn't quilted much in about a decade, so I started slow and made some pot holders. I think it took longer to find my walking foot than it did to make the pot holder, but it's a start.
The front is made from Moda quilt fabric, black Egyptian cotton and a Laurel Burch panel, the back is made from black Egyptian cotton. There is a layer of Insul Bright heat resistant batting and a layer of Hobbs cotton batting in the middle.
It can be found here.
