A Fun Hot Pad for Music Lovers

Make It Up In Your Favorite Fabric!

This whimsical hot pad will be fun hanging on the kitchen wall waiting to be put to use. It’s generously sized to sit under hot dishes and can be given whatever personality you prefer.

Choose a 10″ layer cake square for the piano body and add a keyboard made from scraps. Make yours elegant, funky, sweet or whatever works with your kitchen.

This is a quick project, making it a wonderful gift for music lovers. Give it to a favorite music teacher, as a housewarming gift or for birthdays and holidays.

The instructions specify paper piecing for the keyboard but regular piecing will work too. Just be sure to add seam allowances when cutting out the pieces. Add a layer or two of Insul-Bright batting for heat proofing.

The pattern, from Cut, Stitch + Piece Quilt Patterns, produces a 12″ x 9″hot pad.
