Protect Fingers with Scrappy Pot Lid Holders

| They Make Great Coasters Too!
Do the handles on your saucepan lids get hot? With these scrappy lid holders, you can handle them without burning your fingers. The holders are quick, easy, and make great gifts, too.
Start with an oval traced onto batting. The one used for the examples was about 5” tall by 3” wide. Then use Quilt-As-You-Go to create the scrappy piecing. Finish your holders off with a single-layer binding and you’re done!
Any color theme works nicely with the holders. Choose seasonal scraps or any combination you’ll enjoy all year.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!
PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
