complete!

lacing activity.  A more advanced stitch will be taught during this class

- one ten inch cotton face square in your choice of 4 pattern options

- one 13 inch square with solid color for backing and faux binding  

- one 10 inch thermal batting square

- safety pins and plastic clips for assembly

 

The four pattern options include the following:

coffee beans, and text descriptions in brown, black and red.  Paired with
black backing and faux binding.

2) Floral Hot Pad in light gray with pictures of large white, yellow, red

You will need to supply your own needle and thread, or you can purchase our
sewing tool kits separately if needed.  Please have a container handy to
put small clips into, a pin cushion, and a thimble may be helpful.  It
could also be helpful to have a tray to work on to help contain any
needles, pins or clips that might be dropped while sewing.

 

To order Mitsy Kit Hot Pad kits you can use the link below and let me known
in order notes of your pattern choice.  You can also call me if you would
like to order over the phone.

Supplies and preparation instructions if not buying Mitsy kit:

- one 10 inch cotton square in a color and pattern of choice.  This will be
the primary pattern viewed on the hot pad.

- one 13 inch cotton square with solid color for backing and faux binding
(it should be a color to coordinate with the 10 inch cotton square)

- one 10 inch thermal batting square (I like to use Insul-Brite.  This is
not just regular quilt batting.  Whatever brand you buy, you need to make
sure it is made to insulate from heat.)

- plastic clips and or straight pins for assembly. 

 

Happy Sewing

Tammy F.
