Brighten Your Table With This Cheerful Hot Pad

It Will be Lovely in Seasonal Colors, Too!
Folded squares of fabric form the beautiful star design on the front of this hot pad. Lighthearted fabrics make it a lovely accent for your table.
You can make it in colors for each season, as well as in those that match your decor. It’s an easy project and a bit addictive so don’t be surprised if you go on and make several.
This is also a great project for using up some of those leftovers in your stash. Cut and fold squares into triangles, pressing each one well. Then layer them to create the star design.
The hot pad is turned, not bound, with a layer of cotton batting in the center. You may also want to add a layer of Insul-Bright batting for additional heat proofing.
Once completed, the hot pad, designed by Sharon Holland, is 6 1/2″ square.
