Finishing the Potholder

The only thing left to do on the potholder was to finish the strap on one corner. This turned out to be the simplest part. 

I took a scrap of muslin about 1.5 inches by 4 inches and folded the short ends toward the middle. I then folded the scrap over on itself to hide the raw edges and backstitched along the open end. My stitches were pretty even too.


I then matched the remaining raw edges together, folded them under and stitched that bit to the back of one of the corners.


Pretty simple! Though not due to the directions. Still, that's one project down and two to go.


Unfortunately, I won't be able to get to the other two projects for another three months or so.
