Day 138: Pan Handle Holder

Table of Contents

I can’t believe I used to throw out all those shoulder pads from my refashions! I didn’t realize just how very useful they could be.

You’ve seen these guys before (Remember Day 101?).

Sing the praises of pads!

I pinned the two pads together.

Bet you’re wondering where I’m going with this…:)

Then I stitched them up like so:

Whirrrrrr!

I trimmed off those raw edges, and turned the whole thing inside-out.

Almost done! 🙂

Now I have a super-handy pot/pan handle cover for removing something tasty from the oven! 🙂

My hand is safe & secure! 🙂

Safety First!

Are you wondering what’s in the pot? I was in a french mood, so I whipped up a batch of Gratin Dauphinois! 🙂 You’re looking at a whooooole lotta cheese, cream, and potatoes!

Yum!

Cheers!

Very clever! Love it.

be careful. When I see potholder patterns it always says don’t use polyester thread. Watch out for the danger if it’s polyester, which the shoulder pads mostly are, of catching fire 🙁

I hear ya. I used cotton thread, and the outside of the pad is a thick cotton jersey. Should I be worried about the inside stuff?

What a GREAT idea! No fires at the ReFashionista household!!!!

With a groovy retro fabric cover – Christmas presents here I come!
Thankyou for sharing your cleverness.

What a great idea! Love this.

I want the recipe for this 😀

1~ Agree about the polyester caution; had not thought of that! {I should think the inside is safe?? It is the melting factor that is at issue, plus the fact that it could accidentally catch fire, yes?}
2~ Jody has a good fix for that: cover them in a safe fabric! {I am guessing that will protect from the potential fire issue??}
3~ I agree with Amber; where is the recipe for THIS?!? Looks YUMMY & oooh, CHEEEEEEESE!!!!!!! *drool*
