The only time I've ever had a problem with heat going through them was once when the potholder I was using was wet on the spot where I grabbed the casserole dish out of the oven. Otherwise, they don't seem to need anything else to deflect the heat. And I've used ones I've made for myself for years and years.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-40428062226940144052016-02-16T07:57:14.703-06:002016-02-16T07:57:14.703-06:00Wow, those potholders are gorgeous!

I would say that on an average, if I push right along, I can complete one potholder in a little over an hour.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-60906567317514993402016-02-15T18:25:12.080-06:002016-02-15T18:25:12.080-06:00Love the colors.

I miss it at times, and yet love the one I have now . <br />You do such a nice job on those potholders.<br />How long does that take you? Does it depend on the pattern?

As I told my daughter, my sewing machine I usually use for doing machine quilting is totally out of commission right now and my other machine is not working well.
