Patriotic Pot Holder and Folded Hot Pad Sewing Tutorial

Celebrate Summer Sewing and stitch a Folded Hot Pad. This red, white, and blue sewing project is stitched with four fat quarters and Pellon’s Insul-Fleece Batting. Make our Folded Hot Pad in 30 Minutes with our super-easy step-by step sewing instructions! Plus shop our Hello Summer SALE and save up to 30% Off at ShopNZP.com.

Patriotic Folded Hot Pad Supply ListingFour coordinating cotton quilting fabric Fat Quarters Note: Four Fat Quarters make two Hot Pads!1/4 yd. Pellon® Insul-Fleece Batting Quilter’s Starch Savvy Clover’s Wonder Clips Schmetz Size 90 Jeans/Denim Needle Clover’s Point 2 Point Turner Clover’s Bordeaux Scissors Rotary Cutter, mat, and ruler Iron Standard Sewing ThreadOptional: Walking FootOptional: The Big Jig Patriotic Folded Hot Pad Sewing Tutorial

Approximate finished size: 8″ x 8″

 

Preshrink  fabric by steaming and pressing, and steaming and pressing a second time, and then spray press and starch fabric with June Tailor’s Quilter’s Starch Savvy — press and starch, press and starch.

 

To make one Folded Hot Pad:

Cut six 9″ fabric squares from four fabrics.Cut cut one 9″ square Pellon® Insul-Fleece Batting , or cut two 9″ cotton batting squares.

Press four squares in half, diagonally corner to corner, wrong sides together, and aligning raw edges. Press. Place remaining two fabric squares wrong sides together, with  Insul-Fleece  or batting squares sandwiched between fabrics. Wonder Clip edges.

Insert a new Schmetz Size 90 Jeans/Denim Needle , and stitch through all layers using scant 1/4″ seam allowance – and baste around all four edges.

 

Wonder Clips are ideal for our Folded Hot Pad! The multiple layers are not so pin-friendly and pinning layers may bend straight pins. 

 

Now’s the time to use a Walking Foot – to prevent layers from shifting. 

Place one folded fabric triangle to hot pad back, aligning left and lower edges.  Stack a second folded fabric triangle over the first triangle, and align lower and right edges.

Stack a fourth folded fabric triangle over the previous triangles, aligning right and upper edges.

Stack the fourth folded fabric triangle over the previous triangles, aligning upper and left edges.

Weave final triangle by lifting upper right corner of the last triangle, lifting upper corner of the first triangle, and tucking the fourth triangle under the first triangle. Meet and align all cut edges.

 Pin or Wonder Clip edges in place.

Stitch one side seam with 1/4″-3/8″ seam allowance–or use the width of the presser foot for seam allowance. Stitch this seam twice for durability! Then, double-stitch the opposite side seam.

Using Clover’s Bordeaux Scissors to trim or grade batting seam allowance to approximately 1/8″, and cut away batting from within the seams.

Use Nancy Zieman’s “Wrapped Corner” technique to “wrap” to seam toward center, folding along previous stitching line. Use The Big Jig or and “anchor cloth” and stitch the this third seam – from folded edge to folded edge.Stitch the fourth side seam with Nancy’s Wrapped Corner Technique.

Grade batting seam allowances to 1/8″, and clip away all four corners to reduce bulk.

Turn Folded Hot Pad right side out – through woven triangle opening. Use Clover’s Point 2 Point Turner to push out corners.

Press.

 

Our Folded Hot Pads are so fast and fun to make, you’ll be stitching new hot pads for every occasion! And, they make great gifts – when you need a last-minute gift in minutes!

Cut batting strip narrow end at a 45° angle. Fold narrow fabric strip end, wrong sides together, at a 45° angle. Press.

Place 2-1/2″ batting strip to wrong side of fabric strip. Place batting strip about 3″ in from fabric fold.

Fold long strip edges towards center of batting strip.

Fold again, meeting long edges wrong sides together. Wonder Clip layers together.

 

Fold fabric strips, meeting long edges and Wonder Clip layers together – along the entire continuous fabric strip. Or, if you have just a few Wonder Clips, fold layers – and clip as you sew. 

 

Set Sewing machine for a 3.0 straight stitch, attach an Open Toe Presser Foot , insert a new Schmetz Size 90 Jeans/Denim Needle, and edgestitch along long open edge.

 

Complete sewing continuous fabric strip by cutting narrow end at a 45° angle. Cut batting strip end at  45° angle, and 1″ shorter than fabric. Fold fabric strip end up, wrong sides together.Continue stitching to end of strip and stop with needle down. Lift presser foot, pivot, and stitch across short end of fabric.

Tuck folded end of fabric strip under center circle. Note: The stitching line on the fabric strip will be located to the right.

Set sewing machine for a wide zigzag stitch, and stitch fabric strip to inner circle. After stitching about an inch, gradually reveal entire width of strip and continue stitching – meeting circle edge to edge of fabric strip. Zig in one fabric and zag in the other, while “kissing” fabric edges together.

Continue stitching, turning inner circle counter clockwise as you stitch.

 

  An Edge Joining Presser Foot also works great when seaming fabric strips to center circle of Table Topper. 

At about 4″ from the end, tuck folded end of fabric strip under table topper, and continue stitching to end of strip. Backstitch.

 Steam and press finished Table Topper.

Insert a 1″ x 3″ strip of fusible interfacing into under circle opening, fusible side up. Press and fuse opening closed. And/or cover opening with an applique design.

Patriotic Reversible Palette Coaster Sewing Tutorial with Applique Printable

Celebrate Summer Sewing and stitch a set of Patriotic Reversible Palette Coasters! This red, white, and blue sewing project is stitched with 5″ fabric squares, our FREE! Applique Printable, and our easy sewing tutorial, below! Plus SAVE 20% Off Patriotic Fabrics at ShopNZP.com.

 

  What is a Palette Coaster? Team NZP named our Reversible Palette Coasters for the coaster’s front surface, which is an ideal area — or palette — to showcase a variety of fabrics or techniques. Stitch a set of Palette Coasters featuring Americana Appliques,  or choose thread embellishment – as we did here, or choose a beautiful fabric print, fun novelty fabric, or a leftover quilt block. Try a new technique when making your Palette Coasters! Prior to seaming your coasters together, decorate the front fabric “palette” with ribbons, trims, appliqué, machine embroidery, and/or nearly any embellishments you’d like – you’re the designer!

Our reversible drink coasters, or mug rugs, feature an envelope back and a front flat surface — an ideal “palette” for showcasing applique or thread embellishment! The reverse side opens to wrap around the base of a stemmed-glass.

Approximate finished size: 4-1/2″ x 4-1/2″

 

 

  Preshrink  fabric by steaming and pressing, and steaming and pressing a second time, and then spray press and starch fabric with June Tailor’s Quilter’s Starch Savvy — press and starch, press and starch.

Thread Embellishment: Note: We’re making Palette Coasters from just two fat quarters.

Cut one 16″ square front “palette” fabric.Cut two 16″ square ShirTailor Interfacing.

 

Using a Eze-View Pressing Cloth , press one 16″ square ShirTailor Interfacing to the wrong side of 16″ square front “palette” fabric. Press the second 16″ square ShirTailor Interfacing to the previously pressed interfacing. Insert a new  Schmetz Super Nonstick Needles, Size 100/16 , and stitch a few random straight lines across the stabilized fabric with a spool of thread from Patriotic GlaMore Metallic Rayon Thread Pack. Continue stitching random straight lines across the stabilized fabric, changing thread colors as desired. .

 

 

When changing threads, cut decorative threads at the spool, and pull thread from machine — at presser foot.

. .Cut 5″ crosswise fabric strips from thread-embellished fabric. Subcut fabric strips into 5″ squares. To Make One Reversible Palette Coaster:Cut three 5″ fabric squares from a coordinating fabric – for the reverse “envelope” side of the coaster. Press two coordinating 5″ fabric squares in half, creating 2-1/2″ x 5″ folded fabric rectangles. Layer thread-embellished square to one 5″ coordinating fabric square, with wrong sides together and thread-embellished square facing up. Position two 2-1/2″ x 5″ fold fabric rectangles over thread-embellished square – with folded edges meeting at middle, and raw edges aligning to outer edges. Wonder Clip edges. Insert a new  Schmetz Universal Needles, Size 90/14  and thread sewing machine with standard sewing thread. Stitch just one side seam with 1/4″ seam allowance. Stitch seam twice, for durability!Use Clover’s Straight Tailor’s Awl Stiletto to assist feeding fabric layers under presser foot. Stitch opposite side seam. Stitch seam twice, for durability! Use Nancy Zieman’s “Wrapped Corner” technique to “wrap” the seam toward project center – folding along previous stitching line. Stitch seam twice, for durability! . Stitch the fourth seam with Nancy’s Wrapped Corner Technique. Stitch seam twice, for durability!Use Clover’s Bordeaux Scissors to clip away all four corners – to reduce bulk. Turn Reversible Palette Coaster right side out.Use Point 2 Point Turner to push out corners. Press. Repeat steps above and complete additional coaster(s).

Our Reversible Palette Coasters are so fun to make, you’ll be stitching new coasters for every occasion! And, they make a great addition to a gift basket!
