Yesterday it rained all day so this is how I amused myself. The designs are freebies from Nita's Place (still available), and the topper is my own design because I needed one that I could button over the oven handle.

My embroidery machine is down at the moment so I needed to find another project so I made these mini mitts for taking pans from the oven or dishes from the microwave. I saw these at a friend's house so I made my own pattern. They are made mostly from rem
