oven mitts, big and small
I made big girl and little girl oven mitts as Christmas gifts this year. This cupcake set was for Oscar's BFF, Audrey, who also received a brand-new play kitchen from her grandparents. Audrey's mom made her an adorable apron with this cupcake fabric, and I contributed matching oven mitts.
For a pattern, I traced one of Oscar's mini oven-mitts from a Melissa and Doug set. But I also did a little research and found a kid-sized oven mitt tutorial at Ikat Bag for you to reference if you'd like to make some. Of course, toddlers should never handle hot pans, but these mitts have a layer of Insul-Bright (a heat-resistant batting) inside. You know, just in case.
Grown ups love new oven mitts, too. I made a set for my mother-in-law using the tutorial at The Crafty Cupboard.
I love this pattern! It is the kind of oven mitt with the thumb on the front instead of the side. Easier to use, in my opinion. I'm also a huge fan of this fabric. It is a home dec fabric that I found at JoAnn's, and it wants me to buy more and sew it into throw pillows for my living room.
Are you intrigued by the bag? It is the first mass-produced project that I've made in a long time - tell you more later this week.
