These are just so clever but Im glad that the designer stresses that these are too thin to be used as actual potholders. They do make lovely wall decorations when worked up in sets. I learned to quilt when I was very young, so any of these projects that mimic a quilt block immediately draw my attention. One advantage of using these only as decorative objects is that you can get away with gluing instead of sewing the motifs.

These decorative potholders are so awesome, I think I would have a hard time giving them away. These would make a great housewarming gift. There are so many colors available, you could make so many different checkerboard potholders. I love the idea, and I would consider making them with cotton so that I could also use them as potholders.

If you do intend to use them as potholders, but sure to sew the little motifs on instead of gluing.
