tablecloths and oven mitts

I hit the remnant jackpot the other week at Joann’s! I found a ton of cute prints (usually those are rare), and bonus-the bin was 50% off. YAHOOOOOO! (Yes, I get that excited about fabric) One of my finds was this awesome fruit print-a whole yard for about $3. Niiice. I decided that Sadie’s table needed a tablecloth. It’s really taken me this long to make one! I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect fabric.
And of course, she needed a new matching oven mitt and hot pad! Her old ones were starting to fall apart. (not from MY sewing, heaven forbid) They were really easy, just quilted some fabric and batting, and trimmed it out in twill tape (which is Soo not a good idea on the hot pad…it’s not bias tape!) so don’t look too close. Anyways, I have about a fat quarter left of the fabric…what to do with it?

  1. jess!!! those fabrics are so cute! and the colors are just super awesome. I wish we had a joann’s closer to where I live. I can’t wait to make some kitchen stuff for my girls (gotta move that up my priority list!!!

  2. I LOOOOOOOOOOVE that fabric!! I’ve never seen that at my local Joann’s! Psht! Utah Joann’s needs to step it up!!
    With the last fat quarter, you could frame a bit of it for her kitchen. Or make little coasters! Or mini napkins! Or use it as part of a apron (like a front pocket for it or something!) OR keep it just to drool over!! haha! SO what I would do.

  3. Sounds like you need to make a little apron!

  4. Wow! I REALLY REALLY love that fabric! And the oven mitt and everything look so cute! I wish I had adult sized ones for me out of that fabric!

  5. I totally saw that exact same fabric at my Joanns! Only it wasn’t on sale at our store :(, or I would have bought some! Love what you made with it!

  9. Those are the cutest little things ever! Maybe some matching cloth napkins!?

  27. I’m having total fabric envy! I never find anything that cute at my Joanns! Love what you did with it too!

  28. Awesome! Did you see the batting to the fabric for the tablecloth too? I want to make a play tablecloth but don’t want it sliding everywhere! Thanks!
